Times Higher Education Award 2024 The University of Dundee has been named the UK’s Outstanding Entrepreneurial University of the Year in the 2024 Times Higher Education Awards.
The judges said, “Dundee has always had a strong entrepreneurial offer to its students and staff. This has now been cemented by a strategy and a vision, creating an entrepreneurial culture across the whole university. It demonstrates enterprise and entrepreneurship at its core with its programme embracing all, including its community.”
The award follows other recent accolades for Dundee, which was named Innovative & Entrepreneurial University of the Year in the Triple E Awards for Europe in September, and also Scottish University of the Year by the Daily Mail University Guide.
Dr David McBeth, Vice-Principal Enterprise & Economic Transformation, said, “This award from Times Higher Education further recognises our commitment to enterprise and entrepreneurship, and our strong track record in creating new businesses based on the ideas and innovations of our entrepreneurial staff, students and alumni. It is also testament to a decade of sustained effort from the teams in our Centre for Entrepreneurship, Research and Innovation Services and those Schools who have embraced the enterprise agenda and helped us create outstanding companies. High-growth companies are one key way for the University to help transform the economy of Dundee.”
