But they do: collectively universities lose £1bn a year teaching home students and £5 bn a year on research which is not fully funded. The business model is a result of political decisions over a decade of frozen funding for UK students.

Only 1 day to go until researchers from Engineering deliver a talk on Green Hydrogen: Fueling the Future for the Pint of Science Festival 2024! 🍺🤝

Our Vice-Chancellor Prof Nick Jennings says universities welcome the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) review findings, but more still needs to be done to ensure international students feel welcome and supported in the UK.

“Working with our partners in Government, we need to celebrate…

So do you also want to scrap the £1 trillion trade target and increase fees or public funding for teaching home students?

Great day co-presenting with Dr Katie Parsons 🏳️‍🌈🌍🇪🇺 on creative conversations and the use of #360tech

Although all universities are #morethanourrank , I am delighted with the Complete University Guide 2025 outcomes Loughborough University: Loughborough retains seventh place in the UK and remains top university in the Midlands.

Tragic news from Mt Marapi today - people have died in a lahar from the volcano (lahar - volcanic mudflow. Commonly mistranslated as 'cold lava').

finally, there are unis which serve their cities really well, which take students from a wide variety of backgrounds, without top grades, and transform their lives - and I am rather tired of people suggesting they don’t matter and can’t be high quality. 100faces.universitiesuk.ac.uk

It is perfectly possible and reasonable to present migration data in a way which distinguishes between permanent and temporary migration. Many other countries do this, while complying with UN data requirements. It adds clarity rather than hiding anything.

Government restrictions to international students bringing dependants has already had a big impact: you wanted to bring down student numbers, you have already succeeded. Now good unis all over the country are heading for financial trouble.

Loughborough was BURSTING with science tonight!

Evening 1 of #Pint24 ✅
