Anti-Bullying Week 2019

11th-15th November

The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion team is celebrating Anti-Bullying Week 2019, 11-15 November, and will be in The Hub with our Dignity and Respect Adviser on 13th November, 11.30-14.30. 

Whether it is verbal, physical, online or in-person, bullying has a significant impact. By making small, simple changes, we can break this cycle and create a safe environment for everyone. Because together, we can challenge bullying. Change starts with a conversation. It starts with checking in. It starts with work together.

An award of this nature attest to the transferrable skills that I possess, consolidates my personal development and evidence of my professional practice in my HE career.

My name is Sunny Atuba. I am an engineering academic at CU Scarborough. My background, training and professional experiences revolve around the vibrant fields of physics, computing, electronics and engineering. Specifically, my doctoral thesis was on the generation of trains of ultrashort pulses and the novel application of microstructured optical fibres.​

When did you get your HEA recognition? I got my HEA Fellowship on May 16th 2019.

Why is this important for you? For me, an award of an FHEA is a good evidence to show that I have demonstrated strong commitment to the overall teaching and learning experience that takes place in the HE industry. This shows that I have been able to practically implement a process that fosters reflection, research and development. Furthermore, an award of this nature attest to the transferrable skills that I possess, consolidates my personal development and evidence of my professional practice in my HE career.
