We want to develop, grow and measure the impact of our partnerships. Engaging and supporting our local community and businesses is essential to our success and also our social responsibility.

Heidi King, Director of Marketing and External Relations

Our priorities:

  1. UK education
  2. Workforce and skills
  3. International study partnerships

The creation of a partnerships framework enables us to integrate all external partnership work taking place across the university. We will also be able to capture, develop, manage and measure the impact of our existing partnerships while building new relationships. Collectively, this will help us to directly influence the financial stability of the university.
