Over the two weeks I was able to network with directors and CEOs of the world’s biggest energy companies as well as government advisors and leading academics.

    …ome. As was swiftly demonstrated by fact checking services across the internet, a salary at this level places you firmly in the top 5% of earners, with the average UK salary being around £26,500 and the median household income about £29,400.

This is why we are supporting the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) #FundOurFuture campaign. RCN don’t just want the bursary reinstated, but are calling for over £1bn per year for nursing education across the board, from financial incentives for students to postgraduate routes and cli…

She says much of her work is driven by this aim- “Education has transformed my life, my life experiences, and I feel absolutely driven to help do the same for other people.” Of course, many of the opportunities afforded to Debra were made available by NHS funding.

By listening to the voices of our commuters, we realise they are asking for flexibility and choice in how or when they study, socialise or communicate with us. And that flexibility and choice benefits all students – even on campus students have lives and commitments- it is a win-win situation. Often simple, low cost actions can make a differ…

The most important thing is that these criteria are yours and not based on what someone else thinks is best.

  10. Universities, the NHS, and health workforce transformation

    This article was originally published in Wonkhe. Working alongside the NHS requires universities to constantly be adapting.
