People
Directors of Research
Within each of the five schools within the Faculty of Science and Engineering, a Director of Research is responsible for the strategic and operational research leadership within that school. The Directors of Research also sit on the Science and Engineering Research Advisory Board (SERAG), chaired by the Dean for Research and supported by the Deputy Deans for Research and the Research Managers.
