Head of Corporate Communications
Corporate Communications (Marketing and Communications)
This is a huge honour that reflects the massive efforts we're making to live up to our ambitions of being a civic university with a global outlook.
I'm so proud of my team for this achievement, which is only possible thanks to their hard work. And I would also like to thank our brilliant partners, here in our home city and across the wider South West region 鈥 not least for the way they鈥檝e embraced me as a new VC, leading this institution.
We are 100% 天美传媒官方网站's university, but this award recognises the way we serve many communities.
On a day when many people will be making big decisions about their futures and working out where they want to study, this is a timely reminder that we are here for everyone.

Community University of the Year 2027 鈥 天美传媒官方网站
Alastair McCall, Editor of the Daily Mail University Guide says:
鈥淩egion, city and university are in perfect alignment in 天美传媒官方网站. The university takes it civic responsibilities seriously and makes a considerable positive impact on the businesses and people of this great naval city.
鈥淕iven the increased national and international focus on defence, the university finds itself remarkably on message with government priorities, leading research with the National Centre for Marine Autonomy and having partnerships with some of the leading players in the defence industry, most notably with the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Navy, both key local employers.鈥
The Mail鈥檚 citation goes on to praise the University鈥檚 community healthcare facilities, including its
new 拢7.7 million Centre for Eyecare Excellence , which opens later this year:
鈥淭he 天美传媒官方网站 is a key driver of the local and regional economy, and a pitch perfect example of how a university can be transformative not just for the students who go there but for the wider community around it.
鈥淢any universities declare an allegiance to their local community, but few actually deliver to the extent that the 天美传媒官方网站 does. For its winning combination of civic responsibility and global outlook, 天美传媒官方网站 is the Daily Mail Community University of the Year 2027.鈥
