I am absolutely delighted to have been elected as Rector of the University of Dundee. Both the University and the city have had a life-changing impact on me, and I want to use the position to make sure that all students are positively impacted by their time at the University. It will take a little time to settle into this new role, but I intend to give it the highest priority.
