Diversity, Equality and Inclusivity
“Having previously worked in a department that was initially male-only, I witnessed the transformation brought about through the introduction of good equality and diversity practice. This experiment reinforced my belief that universal engagement is a must to achieve excellence in education and research.” Professor Ken Meissner, Head of Department
