The Board meets twice a year and is made up of academics and industrialists from National and International Business. Other benefits include:

  • Awareness of new and emerging research needs in industry, business and policy
  • Understanding changes in demand across industrial, business and policy sectors for highly skilled personnel and modifying course provision accordingly
  • Links into policy and business networks
  • Graduate placement
