The team charged with delivering continuing professional development (CPD) in mathematics at the University of Cumbria (Fiona Lawton, Kathryn Fox, Ruth Colman and Paul Blanc) was awarded a sought-after Charter Mark by the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics.


The university was shortlisted for


the Times Higher Leadership and Management Awards 2011, in the category of Outstanding Leadership and Management Team of the Year.


Staff from the contemporary applied arts


programme at the university collaboratively explored current textile practice with textile departments at the Australian National University and Novia University of Applied Sciences, Finland. Under the title ‘Nets’, exhibitions of the resulting work, organised by programme leader Angie Wyman, were held during the autumn in Australia and the UK.


The Alexandra Gallery, on the university’s Lancaster campus, hosted the Nets exhibition in October, featuring textile artworks by staff, students and alumni, based on their own interpretation of the theme of ‘Nets’.
