  • December 2009 (PDF)
    The magazine of the University of Dundee • December 09 www.dundee.ac.uk/pressoffice Visions of Discovery contact•dec 09 1 contents news................. 03 from the principal... Those of you who attended my presentations in late September/early October will have heard me speak of my vision for the future of the University, and of how this vision is underpinned by the three watchwords of Excellence, Focus and Impact. The University must strive for excellence in everything it does, whether teaching, research or the professionalism of its botanic gardens... 06 support staff and services. In order to achieve this, the University must focus investment and resource in those areas with the proven record or the potential to sustain excellence. By focusing on our strengths and by aspiring to be the best, the University will inevitably increase its impact, whether social, economic, scientific or intellectual. November saw the publication of two significant documents affecting higher education in the UK. The first, Higher Ambitions, published on 3rd November to the fanfare of a speech by Lord Mandelson, sets out the UK Government’s framework for sustaining the strength of higher education in an ‘increasingly demanding and competitive environment’. The second, The impact of universities on the UK economy, was commissioned by Universities UK and presents the key benefits of higher education to the UK’s economy. It strikes me that our vision resonates with aspects of both of these documents. The Universities discovery day...... 12 UK report emphasises and demonstrates conclusively the huge financial impact that the combined activities of the higher education sector have on the economy, generating over £59 billion of output and over 668,500 fte jobs in 2007-8.
