The award, which is valid for five years, recognises the School’s long-term strategic efforts to embed inclusive practices, support underrepresented groups, and build a diverse, equitable academic environment.
This milestone makes the School of Engineering one of only two departments at the University of ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ to hold the Gold Award, alongside ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ Business School (WBS). It is one of a handful of Engineering departments in the UK to hold Gold.
Thank you to everyone, staff and students alike, who has supported the School of Engineering on this journey to Gold over the past decade!
