A word from the Vice-Chancellor

The University鈥檚 Vice-Chancellor, Professor Bob Cryan, was delighted with the result: 鈥淚t has made me very proud indeed. Our staff are our biggest asset and hugely important to the success of the University. Time and time again I have seen them go the extra mile for their students, which is what it鈥檚 all about. So it鈥檚 pleasing to know that they are happy in their work and in the direction that the University is heading.'
