Staff in the Graduate Project Office

New Appointments in the College of Humanities

The College of Humanities continues to go from strength to strength as we welcome new staff across our disciplines.  

This enables us to continue to explore fresh interdisciplinary activity in both education and research, which is already paying dividends in new curriculum and research projects.

They join our already established staff body, who are renowned yearly by the Student Guild's annual teaching awards for their excellence in teaching, research and the support they offer our students.

In addition to these academic roles, we have also had some new joiners and changes to roles in our support teams, which will allow us to drive the range of services we provide for our students.

The College is pleased to welcome a team of five new Graduate Interns who have joined the professional support in the College this September to enhance our local support.  Under the University’s Graduate Business Partnership scheme, we have created a College Projects Office employing our own recent graduates locally to support various administrative portfolios as well as supporting ad hoc reviews, research and analysis. Alex Ratcliffe, our previous graduate intern, has been appointed to lead the team.

This innovative scheme will add capacity and value to the various ways we already employ our students and graduates in the College, contributes to employability and student engagement, and provides talented graduates with a one year internship to help them achieve their long term professional career plans.  Please join the College in extending a warm welcome to these staff and helping them to settle in.

Following our recent successful recruitment, we will be shortly starting a second round of new staff appointments across the College.
