Highlights
University worth £0.6 billion to the south east economy
A new report has highlighted the £0.6 billion economic worth of the University of Kent to the south east – a figure that has doubled over the past five years. The research by independent consultants shows just how much the region benefits from the impact of the University's activities – from teaching, research, innovation and enterprise to hosting conferences and other events, and contracting local suppliers.
Creative Campus
Creative Campus has acted as a catalyst for new creative projects on campus that support learning and teaching, the arts and development of the campus environment. Since its launch in 2008, Creative Campus has resulted in over 50 projects engaging more than 1,500 staff, students and members of the local community.
Email-free zone
Soul-crushing email causes stress and slows work. Oliver Double, Director of Drama and Theatre Studies at Kent, suggests how to cut the burden.
