We value the wealth of experience, skills and knowledge which students from diverse backgrounds bring to the experience of other students and staff of the University.
We have a strategic target to foster stronger recruitment from groups currently under-represented in higher education, by working to raise aspirations and break down barriers to participation such as those created by culture, geography, social and economic factors.
