[edit] About the Faculty

The uo is now the only university in the UK with a course that offers courses and research opportunities specifically for the study of Cartography (the last stand-alone Cartography department at Oxford Brookes closed in 2001).

The uo Faculty of Cartography is here for the study of maps and map making in the broadest terms, from mind maps and diagrams of political influence, to directions scribbled on a beer mat. The faculty is as interested in the cultural conditions of map making as in the practice itself, and seeks to investigate the diverse contexts of map making as much as its methodologies, technologies, and history.

[edit] Mailing List

The FacultyCartography now has its own mailing list (it was taking over the UoList!) that you can subscribe to here: http://mailman.twenteenthcentury.com/mailman/listinfo/cartography .
