Our international strategy is focused on developing mutually beneficial collaborations and working closely with educational institutions and businesses around the world.

Derby has attracted £4 billion of investment over the past 10 years. We recognise the part we play in providing businesses with the skilled workers, academic expertise and technological resources they need to thrive, as well as the valuable economic contribution we make to the UK.

Professor Kathryn Mitchell, Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive, introduces the University of Derby's Annual Review 2017/18.

Following an overseas visit to partners - old, new and prospective - in China and Hong Kong, Professor Keith McLay writes about shared values and the importance of education as a universal language.

Dr William Van Gordon, from the University of Derby's Centre for Psychological Research, discusses how we can use mindful breathing to reconnect ourselves with the present and help reduce stress.

Research is a fundamental part of our identity as an academic institution and the work we do has a real impact.

We reflect on the 2017/18 year with a month-by-month overview of key events at the University of Derby.

Throughout 2017/18 we honoured a total of nine people in recognition of their services, commitments and achievements, both regionally and nationally.

We continue to invest heavily in the University of Derby estate, improving facilities for students and staff and providing state-of-the-art teaching and learning spaces.

With a growing reputation for teaching and research excellence, a strong student base and superb industry connections, there is no better time to be involved with the University of Derby.
