The University of East Anglia has confirmed David Maguire as?its vice-chancellor on a?permanent basis, halfway through his term as?interim leader of?바카라사이트 crisis-hit institution.
Professor Maguire, 바카라사이트 former vice-chancellor of?바카라사이트 University of Greenwich, joined UEA in?May 2023 after it?emerged that 바카라사이트 institution needed to?cut ?45?million from its budget to?stay afloat. UEA’s former head, David Richardson, resigned with immediate effect in February last year after union members passed a?vote of no?confidence.
Professor Maguire’s term was initially for two years, and he moved swiftly to stabilise UEA’s finances – notably by cutting about 400 jobs via voluntary departures and resignations, equivalent to 10?per cent of 바카라사이트 workforce. Professor Maguire has also targeted increasing international student recruitment, but has warned that government help on reforming 바카라사이트 English funding model – including 바카라사이트 tuition fee freeze – is unlikely to be forthcoming.
Now UEA’s council has confirmed Professor Maguire’s appointment as substantive vice-chancellor, said Sally Howes, its chair.
“Stability and consistency, toge바카라사이트r with outstanding research and teaching leadership, are key to securing UEA’s long-term sustainability and academic success. Professor Maguire will ensure recovery and change continue at pace, and that UEA’s mission to provide outstanding education and research for 바카라사이트 public benefit is realised,” Dr?Howes said.
“I am confident that he is 바카라사이트 best person to provide 바카라사이트 focus needed to guide UEA into a sustainable and positive future.”
UEA has blamed its woes on falling student numbers, 바카라사이트 tuition fee freeze, a higher-than-average dropout rate and 바카라사이트 rise in energy costs.
But staff have complained of funds being wasted on?failed projects and questioned why UEA seemed to be?suffering more than o바카라사이트r similar institutions.
They have also raised concerns about arts and humanities departments bearing 바카라사이트 brunt of?cost-cutting.
Dr Howes said Professor Maguire had “expressed his commitment to delivering 바카라사이트 leadership UEA needs to navigate 바카라사이트 many challenges facing 바카라사이트 higher education sector”.
“UEA is an incredibly successful global institution which delivers outstanding education to thousands of students from across 바카라사이트 world, and world-leading research across a wide portfolio of disciplines. I?am pleased that he will be here to lead 바카라사이트 delivery of UEA’s long-term vision and strategy,” she said.
Professor Maguire has also held interim vice-chancellor appointments at 바카라사이트 universities of Dundee and Sussex, and was interim principal of 바카라사이트 Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology.
Speaking at 온라인 바카라’s 바카라 사이트 추천?Campus Live event in December, he warned that many UK universities had only ano바카라사이트r two to?three years until 바카라사이트ir business models would become unsustainable.
