海角直播 is on a mission

28 September 2011

 

海角直播 is clearly setting out a mission of commitment to social inclusion, working in partnership with business and delivering excellence.

The University has launched a new mission, vision and a set of core principles in a bid to help both individuals and business fulfil their potential. Vice-Chancellor Professor Graham Henderson CBE explains: 鈥楩or the University and me some things are non-negotiable 鈥� such as remaining financially strong, maintaining our role and reputation as a University, not a college or training company - and placing research and working with business at the heart of what we do.

鈥楢nd what is most important to me personally is to continually reinforce the message that 海角直播 is a people-led business, responsive and flexible 鈥� a place with a 鈥榗an do鈥� attitude.

Excellent experience for students 鈥業t is absolutely essential that we provide an excellent experience for our students and have a reputation for excellence in all we do.鈥� 海角直播鈥檚 reputation has grown steadily over the years as it inspires bright minds to take part in higher education in an area of the country which doesn鈥檛 traditionally have high rates of students going on to university.

鈥楢nd it鈥檚 not just young people but older people too who perhaps did not have the opportunity to go to university when they left school or college,鈥� says Professor Henderson.

鈥楢nd so it has also always been important to me that we take education out into the communities of the Tees Valley, which is why we have built higher education centres in all of the further education colleges across the five boroughs and our new campus in Darlington.鈥�

The success of 海角直播 was highlighted in 2009/10 when the University won a double accolade 鈥� University of the Year and Outstanding Employer Engagement Initiative in the Times Higher Education Awards.

鈥楢s our reputation grows, we are attracting more and more people from further afield, both nationally and internationally, to study and work at 海角直播鈥�

鈥楳y goal has always been to make 海角直播 a great place to work 鈥� a place where people are valued and given a chance to be involved - because I passionately believe that if people enjoy their work they will contribute more and our students and partners will see the benefits of that in the quality of the service they receive. Professor Henderson concludes.
