Prof Caroline Bowman
Professor in Psychology / Dean of Education and Student ExperienceÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï
I am the Dean of Education and Student Experience for the College of Medicine and Health, which hosts the disciplines of Psychology, Medicine, Healthcare Sciences, Sport and Exercise Sciences, and Medical Sciences. The strategic focus of my role within the College is to ensure that our teaching is transformational, with good health and wellbeing sitting at its heart. Further to my College duties, I lead the delivery of the University's Student Experience Strategy, which takes a holistic approach to student experience, delivering on five key objectives: Wellbeing; Inclusivity; Environment; Opportunity; Communication. I am a passionate advocate for effective and inclusive practice within teaching and learning and I led the University's transition to Advance HE's Professional Standards Framework (2023), enabling staff at the University to offer cutting edge practice, in line with national benchmarks. In addition to my College and University roles, I lecture within the School of Psychology and Sport Science, where I teach Biological Psychology and Consumer Psychology at undergraduate level, and I lead an Advance HE accredited discipline specific teacher training programme for doctoral students who teach across the School's programmes.
