In 50 days time our members will be taking 5 weeks of strike action. We call for the redundancy process to be stopped! Executives want 200 jobs to go (187FTE). Due to resignations and retirements, and non-staff savings, they are 35FTE from their staffing target. Stop this cruel, flawed process.
At the University of Dundee, there is 'no growth strategy apart from cuts'. Britain really is the thickest country in the world. www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/politics/...

Very, very bad. The folks at Dundee UCU @ducuuo.bsky.social are fighting back all they can, but I suspect it'll need intervention from Holyrood to stop the worst of it.
I've now seen the management proposals for maths at Dundee. Basically: shutter the UG degrees; lose 3FTE (on a headcount of 16); maths continues "as a discipline" but only for service teaching, "interdisciplinary contribution" and MScs including, inevitably, one in AI.

This is so sad. The University should have reached out to parents before the potential decision to close the Botanic Garden went public.

We have had reports that some colleagues who are not at risk of redundancy, have been making derogatory comments about the value of colleagues who are now at risk. This behaviour is having a disproportionate effect on BME staff. 1/2
Our branch has analysed the conditions of funding from SFC that the University of Dundee needs to comply with to access additional funding. Our analysis demonstrates without doubt that the conditions of funding were breached. We were stunned when the SFC approved it given that we had spoken 1/2
