Faculty and schools

Teaching is carried out by three specialist schools integrated within a single Faculty led by Executive Director Mark Nichols.

The schools are:

School of Business (Dean - Jane Needham)
School of Information and Social Sciences (Dean – Raymond Young)
School of Workplace Learning (Dean – Robbie Sutherland)

This structure encourages interaction between disciplines, including shared responsibility for some programmes, while maintaining a coherent approach to our overall teaching programme.

Our 153 full-time academic staff are highly qualified and bring a wide range of industry experience to their roles.

Over 400 adjunct Faculty (mostly off-campus) with relevant expertise also contribute to the development and delivery of our programmes.

All academic staff are encouraged to maintain personal industry links through a proactive development programme.

Our degree teaching is also underpinned by an active research programme.
