Equality and diversity

We are committed to promoting equality and diversity in all of our practices and activities.

Our aim is to establish an inclusive and welcoming culture which ensures equal opportunities for staff and students of all ages, ethnicities, disabilities, family structures, genders, nationalities, sexual orientations, races, religious or other beliefs, and socio-economic backgrounds.

We were awarded the Athena SWAN Bronze Award in 2010, which was successfully renewed in 2015.

The award recognises our commitment to supporting career development of women at all stages from undergraduate through to professorial level.
