Newcastle University: Key Business Drivers
• Maintaining and enhancing position as a research intensive University against strong national and international competition for staff, students and research grants and contracts
• Marketisation of higher education– Research Assessment Exercise– Top up fees, bursaries and scholarships– Local wage bargaining
