Currently on my mind… How should we resource programmes ? What drives student recruitment ? What scale of student numbers do we want? Postgraduate degrees and professional development - how separate should they be? How will technology change and can the University keep up? How can UoE governance frameworks be expanded to include ODL programmes? How can support services (College & Central) learn and adapt to enable innovation in programme development and delivery?
