The year 2010 saw the continuance of an era of growth and achievement that I am immensely proud to have been a part of.
Our research productivity has gone from strength-to-strength, with research and consultancy income reaching record heights (in excess of $5.5 million) and we have seen Bond University consistently feature in international headlines throughout 2010. It has been pleasing to see the University’s research culture flourish and I look forward to continuing this focus in 2011. | |
