Athena Swan Action Plan
Athena Swan is a framework for addressing inequality in higher education and research institutions. It is based on a methodology of self-assessment, action planning, and continuous progression. In September 2024, TUS was awarded an Athena Swan Bronze Award. Our application for this award included our TUS Athena Swan Action Plan which was approved by TUS Governing Body, Vice Presidents and Deans Council and EDI Steering Committee. This institutional achievement builds on a previous Athena Swan Bronze Legacy Award received by TUS in 2022.
TUS Athena Swan Action Plan 2024-2028Race Equality Action Plan
The TUS Race Equality Action Plan 2025-2027 was approved in early 2025. This Action Plan was informed by Race Equality Forums which were open to staff and students during Academic Year 2023/2024. These forums were shaped by the Higher Education Authority Anti Racism Principles, which TUS signed in 2023. This Race Equality Action plan has been endorsed by the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Steering Committee and TUS Governing Body. The plan provides a framework for fostering an inclusive culture, where racial equality is promoted to ensure a safe and empowering environment for staff and students.
