Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Athena SWAN Award success

11 May 2016

Congratulations to the four Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê departments who have been successful in the most recent Athena SWAN awards round.

Athena SWAN Results were released last week, and we are pleased to announce that Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Computer Science and the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Eastman Dental Institute received Silver awards, while the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Institute of Clinical Trials and Methodology and the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Division of Surgery and Interventional Science were awarded Bronze awards.

recognise commitment and action in addressing gender equality in higher education. To achieve Silver, a department must evidence the impact of their activities to support the recruitment, retention and progression of women. Applicants must also show how they have been working to foster a supportive and inclusive working culture.

Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê continues to make progress in achieving Athena SWAN awards. Along with the University of Oxford, Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê holds the largest number of Silver Athena SWAN awards in the country, and is the only institution in the country to hold both an Institutional Athena SWAN Silver award and Bronze Race Equality Charter Mark award. Across Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê 30 departments hold an Athena SWAN award - 18 of which are at Silver level.
