Athena Swan

A committee has been established to facilitate our first goal, the award of an Athena SWAN bronze medal.  This award will recognise that the University has a solid foundation for eliminating gender bias and developing an inclusive culture that values all staff.

The committee is made up of representatives from the University’s five Faculties as well as key support departments.  If you would like to talk to a committee member about the scheme, please contact them using the details below:
