During these unprecedented times, our 2030 Strategy is guiding our response to Coronavirus.
Dr Louise Bright, Director of Research and Business Engagement, said: “USW is and will continue to draw upon its research expertise, its excellence in teaching, as well as its civic commitment to the people of Wales, in order to collectively act in response to those directly affected by Coronavirus.
