Event details

The UPP Foundation Civic University Commission is a major new independent inquiry into the future of the civic university: how can universities most successfully serve their place in the 21st century?

The Commission wants to understand how civic universities operate today, how they operated in the past, and how they should operate in the future: to do that they are looking for evidence from a wide range of sources.

The Commission will be holding three major oral evidence sessions across the country and seeking written evidence from as wide a range of institutions, organisations, and people as possible.

In Nottingham it will be focusing on the relationship between universities and schools; and universities’ global role.

The Civic University Commission's Chair, Lord Kerslake, and commissioners will be hearing from the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University; and from key stakeholders from the city and the surrounding region.

This session will be focusing on universities’ global role, and is open to observers.
