Our vision is to be an internationally engaged research-intensive university, delivering meaningful impact, with students at our heart.

Our University values include being authentic – honest, trustworthy and open – and being responsible – accountable for our actions, caring for ourselves and others.

All colleagues have a role to play in ensuring we deliver on the University strategy safely and responsibly. We should expect this of our partners too.

National security concerns and threats to our growing innovation economy in the UK are real and shouldn’t be dismissed.

These are sensitive issues and for some it may be uncomfortable to discuss this – we must be prepared to listen to those concerns, but also accept that we do not have the option to ignore the issues.
