We have an ongoing and
clear focus on ensuring Value for Money (VfM) for our students, staff, and
other stakeholders including taxpayers. Efficient and effective procurement of
goods and services is a key enabler of this, as is the effective use of our
resources including our estate. But we know that Value for Money means much
more than this. We continue to ensure that Northumbria adds value across all
its activities, through the student experience whilst studying, through support
for employability, and through ensuring that we are transparent about how we
use our resources.
The value of a Northumbria
University degree is not just confined to the immediate benefits of an
excellent student experience, access to opportunities across the University and
preparation for a successful career after graduation. Rather it is a longer-term
investment in personal growth, skill development and intellectual curiosity
that lasts a lifetime. A Northumbria degree provides graduates with the
knowledge, critical thinking abilities and practical skills needed to navigate
complex challenges in the workforce and beyond.
The
resources on this webpage are particularly designed for students and show where
our income comes from, how we spend our resources to support our objectives,
and how we monitor against these objectives to ensure we deliver value. The
pages also provide information to help understand the inherently complicated
and interlinked areas of funding, fees, Value and VfM
