St. Augustine Campus – Trinidad and Tobago
Professor Brian Copeland
PRO VICE-CHANCELLOR AND PRINCIPAL, ST. AUGUSTINE CAMPUS, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO
As in previous years this report is filled with good news of awards, achievements and ample evidence of a Campus community that remains committed to excellence in teaching and research, a best-in-class student experience, and to providing high value services and support to local and regional stakeholders – from our surrounding communities to local and regional governments and organisations. While the Campus has achieved much, in order to truly appreciate some of the achievements highlighted in this report, one needs to understand the pressures facing the Campus community. I have spoken often about the need to set regional and institutional priorities around building a region and a people that are resilient. While technical skills are part of the required formula, there is a psychological aspect as well, what some authors refer to as “grit” and what we refer to in this year’s report as “Perseverance”.
