BSc (Hons) Public Management and Business
Between 2012-2016 I lead and developed a new degree programme BSc (Hons) Public Management and Business. The programme provided a unique blend of academic rigour, practitioner engagement and student innovation with sustainability embedded throughout. Leading a degree programme, especially a new one is both deeply challenging and deeply rewarding.
National Recognition
"An exemplary programme and if not one of the best of its kind in the UK it may be the very best. It is forward thinking and topical demonstrating excellent teaching and learning with very committed staff and good quality facilities"

Student Perspective
Community Engagement
"It was a fascinating and rewarding experience working with the first year Public Management students on the Shekinah research projects. Within a limited time frame they managed to grasp the complexities of two of our projects. They related their findings to the broader political landscape and interviewed our client group in a sensitive and inclusive manner".

The quality of the students was outstanding and they clearly enjoyed the whole process. The work they have done will be of huge benefit to us, and Dr Borne should be commended for providing students with such a fantastic experience
