Students in lecture theatre
'Across all subject areas, academic colleagues will be reflecting on and responding to what is needed by students, businesses and communities. What we offer for 2015 cannot be the same as what we offered in 2008. So I see this strategic plan as the start, not the finish, of a process of ongoing renewal.'

Introduction

Creative thinking, pedagogic diversity, intellectual challenge and interdisciplinarity have always been fundamental to a Sussex education and must remain so as we move forward.

Our students expect a high quality of teaching and learning; to have more flexible modes of delivery and learning; and to gain lifelong skills that equip them for employment and that enable them to adapt and contribute to the changing needs of the economy and society.

We will grow and enhance Sussex's reputation by delivering on these expectations.
