Diversity

Welcoming all is part of our culture

We get behind a range of activities to ensure everyone is accepted and has equal opportunities when it comes to education and employment in our university.

Disability Inclusion Action Plan

The University is committed to ensuring that students, staff and visitors with disability have equal opportunities to excel at and enjoy our university. We launched our 2019-24 Disability Inclusion Action Plan in September 2019, during Disability Inclusion Week.
