Academic Engage series
The Engage forums provide a space for colleagues in particular roles to meet and share expertise and insights, focused on strategic topics and themes. Chaired by Senior University leaders they are also a chance to discuss concerns, visualise opportunities and raise awareness, feeding directly back to the University's Executive Board.
If you hold one of the relevant roles you will be automatically invited to the relevant forum.
Currently there are five Engage Forums:
DPVC Engage. Chaired by the Provost. Organised by the Provost's Office.
HoD Engage. Chaired by the Provost. Organised by the Provost's Office.
DoE Engage. Chaired by DVC (Education). Organised by Jess Johnson.
