Cutting Edge Research and Teaching
The cornerstone of a Lincoln education is the tutorial system. Students are stimulated and pushed beyond their comfort zone by our Fellowship. By attracting outstanding researchers, who are leaders in their subject areas, we will maintain the highest standards of academic experience for current and future generations of Lincoln students.
Modern languages are key to engaging with other cultures, through literature and history as well as communication. Lincoln offers French, German, Spanish and Italian for students with a background in one or more of these languages, but at present we only have endowed funding for French. The Modern Languages Fund enables us to host language assistants, supports tuition, and helps to provide our students with language-learning opportunities.
Our Fellows are world-leading academics in their subject areas, and many have international collaborations with scientists in different institutions across the globe. As well as greatly enhancing their research through these associations, they also provide opportunities for our students to participate in international collaborations. For example, Dr Kimberly Palladino is member of an international board leading research into Dark Matter (the LZ board), in an enterprise involving 250 scientists from around the world.

"Modern science is at a point where we know dark matter exists and that it is looking increasingly like a particle or a sector of particles. Unfortunately, it can hide very well so we're looking for the tiniest hints of something being there that should not be. My work on Lux Zeplin involves taking our final signals and interpreting them in the context of our models to be able to understand what is expected from `normal' matter and have observed unique behaviour of an extremely rare decay."
