Nick Beckett | Faculty Technical Manager
Welcome from the Faculty Technical Manager
Our technical services provide students with the information they need to access the wonderful facilities that relate to their course and how they can make their time on the course the most productive.
Each area has at least one member of the technical team associated with it. These technicians are highly skilled and the first point of contact, providing students with help and advice so they can achieve their aims and ambitions.
The technical management team underpin the technical services in the faculty, striving to deliver each technical resource to the highest quality and providing students with the best experience possible.
I am School Technical manager for the School of Society and Culture (SoSC) including °µÍø½âÃÜ Institute of Education, °µÍø½âÃÜ Business School, and School of Art, Design and Architecture. I am here to facilitate use of a whole range of cutting-edge spaces and physical assets. I support a highly skilled technical team, committed to delivering the highest quality of work across our resources.
We are lucky to support some of the very best curriculums available and are proud to foster continuous development to keep pace in areas such as future design thinking, creative, innovative, and inspiring processes and technological developments, all of which offer the possibility of critical solutions.
Industry standards are pinnacle to our delivery, drawn from our own talent, training and experience. We have such a vibrant and diverse eco-system of specialist areas available to students, and the leading skills and facilities are right here to support a premium experience for all our programmes.

Health and safety
We are very strict with all matters of health and safety and will enforce appropriate measures if we see anything that can endanger students, staff or the building itself.
If in doubt about anything, please see a member of staff, who will either be able to advise you or find the right person for you to contact.
Student conduct
We expect you to adhere to the student code of conduct when dealing with fellow students and staff members. Under no circumstances do we tolerate abuse, bad language or threatening behaviour and we will report any breach of the rules immediately.
We are here to help you in your studies and can understand the pressures you may be under, but we cannot allow antisocial behaviour in the University.
