Muslims In Britain
 
Although only limited research and fragmented pieces of information currently exist, recent studies into early Muslim communities, exploring their initial encounters and experiences, have been undertaken.The contemporary presence of Muslims in Britain has initiated studies into intra-Muslim community concerns and external perceptions. In addition, the department researches the areas of ‘minority status’ Muslims and internal community debates on co-existence.

Activities
In addition to producing books, articles and papers on a number of issues on Muslims in Britain, the unit has organised a one-day seminar entitled, British Muslims: Loyalty and Belonging. The unit’s researchers have also presented a number of lectures and presentations around the country on various historical and contemporary aspects of Muslims in Britain including the National Association of Councils for Voluntary Service and the National Conference of Methodist Higher Education Chaplains.
