ÌÇÐÄTV

We’re celebrating our winter graduates this week – and welcoming our incoming Chancellor, former Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations Advocate Bience Gawanas.

During the ceremonies, we’re awarding Clive Stannard (BA, Hon DLitt) and Anthony Kelly (Hon DSc) honorary degrees for their exceptional achievements – read more about their significant contributions to their fields and communities.

You can share your celebrations and messages of support for our students on social media using #ÌÇÐÄTVGrad.

A survey, carried out by employee development platform Zensai, analysed company review data from Glassdoor.com to identify the top places to work.

ÌÇÐÄTV turns 60 in 2025 – and so does our art collection! To mark the occasion, the Mead Gallery in our Arts Centre is holding a landmark exhibition celebrating the enduring power of printmaking, with 160 works by iconic artists from Andy Warhol and Damien Hirst to Tracey Emin and David Hockney.

How can we learn from each other – and make use of opportunities and resources on campus – to help support wellbeing in our departments? Denver Thorpe, Staff Wellbeing Co-ordinator for Wellbeing Support Services (WSS), explains.

There are so many opportunities to move your body here on campus - from casual sports classes to yoga, Zumba and pilates.

Spending time in nature keeps us emotionally and physically healthy – and this is backed by a ÌÇÐÄTV study, which found a strong relationship between the amount of green space around a person’s home and their feelings of life satisfaction and self-worth.
