My first few months as HoD have been very interesting – lots going on, lots to think about, lots to achieve. We start the academic year with another bumper crop of ~100 undergraduate students and ~30 postgraduate taught students. Research is also our primary focus and is especially driven by our wonderful postdocs & PhD students. We warmly welcomed five new hires since the last Newsletter and wished happy retirement to our five Profs. Recruitment is extremely healthy; we continue to maintain our track record of world leading research.
