Director's Message

Dear Colleagues,

This week’s pic comes from Laura Walmsley’s farewell last Friday (thanks to Martin). We recognise and thank Laura for her excellent service to the university and wish her all the best in her retirement.

Congratulations to all those who worked so hard to submit an ARC Discovery Project.  The cross-School Peer assessment seemed to work well, and if you have any suggestions for next round please pass them onto Ken Baldwin.

School Forum this week. If you have any last-minute items for your representatives please forward them on directly, or to Sue Wigley. Items to be discussed include the School Review, ERA assessment, using our National Institutes Grant, spinning up some new Masters programs and a proposal to restart the School Post-doc/apprenticeship scheme.

While, thankfully, our School building seem relatively unscathed, we wait further announcements about the campus reopening.

Regards,

Tim
