ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY
Situated in the heart of a historic city on the beautiful Brayford Pool Wa- terfront, the University of Lincoln is proud of its reputation for putting students at the heart of everything it does. We are ranked in the top 30 UK universities for student sat- isfaction in the Guardian University Guide 2023, listed in the worldís top 130 universities in the Times Higher Educationís (THE) Young University Rankings 2022, and hold a top five- star score overall in the QS Stars rat- ing system of global universities. The University of Lincoln is a uni- versity of and for the 21st Century. Dynamic, enterprising, and globally connected. We nurture talent and ideas, contribute globally by creat- ing and sharing knowledge, and de- monstrably help to transform lives and communities for the better. We were established in 1996, in one building on a brownfield site. Charged with enriching the cityís economic, social, and cultural life, we were named the University of Lincoln in 2001. Since then, we have grown into a flourishing anchor insti- tution that contributes over £400m to the local economy. Throughout this exciting period of development, we have been guided by a consist- ent set of principles: excellence in teaching, learning, and quality of student experience; responsiveness to the needs of communities and or- ganisations; and working in partner- ship to make great things happen. ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY
THE ESTATES & FACILITIES DEPARTMENT
This strategic plan, covering the pe- riod to 2027, marks a major point in our history as we focus on realis- ing our long-term ambition of being seen as a university that contributes significantly to the nationís success through regional regeneration and international connectivity. Achieving this vision will require us to look outwards, attracting talent and ideas from around the world, to improve communities beyond, as well as within, our city and region. We must deliver the most appropri- ate educational courses, provide the best student experience, and con- duct the most relevant research. Our academic structures, support ser- vices, physical and digital infrastruc- ture, and processes must be fit for purpose. By 2027, we expect to have a larger and more international student body with a higher proportion of post- graduate taught students; a greater diversity of programme types and delivery mechanisms; a larger re- search order book with more staff conducting internationally recog- nised research; more and stronger partnerships with external organi- sations; greater income from con- sultancy and licensing; and a higher proportion of international staff. At the same time, we must maintain our reputation for civic engagement, and for a committed staff community that delivers a supportive and stimu- lating student experience.
