With more than 190 years of teaching experience, we have over 3,000 colleagues and 21,000 students from almost 100 countries around the world; we contribute an estimated £500 million to the economy every year.
Our community is made up of people from a range of social and cultural backgrounds and we are proud that our friendliness, warm welcome and professionalism are consistently commented on by our colleagues and students as well as guests at events such as open days, graduation ceremonies and guest lectures.
Being located in the largest financial and legal district outside of London makes us a popular university for our colleagues, students and graduates alike.
We develop our talent through a range of development opportunities available through initiatives such as our extensive People Development Programme, discounted postgraduate study and University development funding.
We truly are committed to supporting our colleagues with tailored and targeted development at every stage of their career, whether that’s through both personal and professional development opportunities or attaining teacher fellow status with Advance HE.
Colleagues are also recognised through annual awards ceremonies, including our Students’ Union-led colleague awards, The Golden Robes, where our students nominate colleagues for their teaching and support.
