Vice-chancellor outlines his 'estates masterplan' for University of Wolverhampton

This week marks another significant milestone in the recent history of the University of Wolverhampton as we officially launch our estates masterplan and longer-term vision for the university’s presence in and across the Black Country.

Having been in post as vice-chancellor for over a year, I am in awe of the impact the university makes in Wolverhampton, in the Black Country and around the world.

The university remains true to its origins focusing on opportunity, social mobility and delivering transformative change to individuals, communities and society through its teaching, research and knowledge exchange.

The university is at an exciting point in its near 200-year history as it pivots to growth by attracting thousands more students to Wolverhampton from the UK and internationally. This provides the perfect context to review the university estate and ensure it is fit for purpose and able to deliver a high-quality environment for our students, staff and the wider community.
