Sub Dean International
As is the Sub Dean (International) for the University's Business School, my role builds upon the strong education and research reputation developed by the Business School, working with international University partnerships and students abroad and in the UK. I have a keen interest in learning technology and have researched and implemented a number of innovatory approaches, including developing pedagogic methods for VoiceIP communications within the international MBA. More recently the emphasis has been upon voice text recognition and other technologies for use within the classroom and assessment feedback. I joined the University in 1988 as a Senior Lecturer in Marketing, and was appointed Principal Teaching Fellow in 1999 prior to being appointed to my current role.
