2 August to 3 September
Research reflections will be taking a break over the month of August. I would like to thank all those who have contributed reflections over the past year. We have continued to receive reflections on a diverse range of issues from both students and staff across the University, reflecting on research from undergraduate level through to international research in our areas of research excellence. Each reflection has highlighted an important contribution to our research culture and our critical engagement with intellectual ideas.
As we finish one academic year with our graduation ceremonies we look forward to the next year of academic activity, when we will welcome our new Deputy Vice Chancellor for Research & Enterprise, Professor Andrew Slade, and in four faculties we will work together towards our new strategic plan. However, it is important to reflect on and celebrate the breadth and depth of our research activity, and continue to ensure that all our students benefit from the ideas and knowledge we have generated. Our research activity is continuing to make a difference to the academic environment for both our staff and students and I look forward to working with you next year in the further development of our University community.
