UNNC Provost and PVC Global Engagement Confirmed


September 11th, 2019

Following a global recruitment competition, Vice-Chancellor Professor Shearer West has appointed Professor Nick Miles as Provost at the University of Nottingham Ningbo Campus (UNNC). She has also appointed Professor Robert Mokaya to the role of Pro Vice-Chancellor for Global Engagement.

Professor Miles and Professor Mokaya had been delivering their roles on an interim basis following the departure of the former Provost Professor Chris Rudd to James Cook University in Singapore.

Professor West said:

“I am delighted that Nick will continue in the role of UNNC Provost on a permanent basis. His passion, commitment and leadership for our China campus will prove essential as UNNC moves into a new era, not least as we extend our UK ‘Beacons of Excellence’ research programme into Ningbo to develop innovation clusters on smart manufacturing, green chemicals and healthcare.

”I am equally delighted that Robert will continue as the University’s Pro Vice-Chancellor for Global Engagement to develop our global strategy and sustain our partnerships across the world. Now more than ever we must maintain and nurture our global outlook that is so vital to our research, teaching and student experience.”
