Title

2.2

Description of the goods or services required

The University is developing a new strategy to take us up to 2030, designed to future-proof the institution for the anticipated growth in 18-year-olds nationally and to sharpen the University's offer by investing in new facilities, ensuring our services to students are fit for purpose and our academic portfolio is designed in response to industry need and market demand.

The new brand positioning is authentic, distinctive and highly engaging for the undergraduate and postgraduate market in the UK and internationally.
