Glyndwr Universitys Vice Chancellor, Professor Michael Scott, has relinquished his role of Vice Chancellor and Chief Executive with immediate effect. A statement from the Board of Governors at the University said Professor Scott achieved remarkable success as Vice Chancellor, taking the institution to full university status in 2008. Professor Scott has been an inspirational leader, a tireless worker for the interests of both students and the North East Wales community. He leaves a profound, positive legacy in numerous ways and particularly through his passionate commitment to widening student access to higher education. We will now build on the strong foundations laid by Professor Scott and continue to develop the University in keeping with the vision he established. In the coming weeks an interim Vice Chancellor will be appointed to provide leadership and to oversee the University’s operational, commercial and academic affairs. It is very much business as usual as we begin 2015 with a revitalised structure, on the back of a successful few months which saw Glyndŵr University achieve record-breaking student numbers and rise 44 places up the Guardian University League tables. We thank Professor Scott for his enormous contribution and wish him every success in the future.
