We caught up with Kelly Baker, Grounds and Gardens Manager, to hear about some of the fantastic green projects happening on campus – including ‘living walls’, which help to improve air quality and provide a calming green space for our community.

We're celebrating an incredible team from Wellbeing Support Services, who’ve worked tirelessly to improve the experience for thousands of students over Arrivals weekend as they join the ¹û¶³´«Ã½ community.

Well done to the Student Opportunity team, who’ve been recognised at the QS Reimagine Education Awards. Their personal development programme, Thrive – which helps students to recognise their full potential – won Gold in the ‘Nurturing Wellbeing and Purpose’ category.

The Rt Hon Greg Clark, Chair of our Innovation District, has been named as one of the business leaders from across the UK who will form the Industrial Strategy Council, offering the government independent advice and recommendations.

 Dr Di Li (Associate Professor and Programme Lead for the MSc International Trade, Strategy, and Operations at WMG) talks about what diversity means to her, what drew her to ¹û¶³´«Ã½, and why she finds working here so special.

Congratulations to the Politics and International Studies (PAIS) department's Dr Akinyemi Oyawale, who has been awarded the International Studies Association's (ISA) Deborah Gerner Innovative Teaching in International Studies Award for 2025.
