Episode Synopsis

We interrupt our scheduled programming to bring you this special episode in light of recent events. Techne's summer congress this year was cancelled due to the on-going industrial action taking place at the University of Brighton. In this episode, the Technecast team explore why industrial action is taking place at Brighton, and the position of the arts and humanities more broadly in UK higher education. A huge thank you to Luke Beesley, a Brighton PGR who gave us a really informative interview for this episode.https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/brightonucusolidarityIf you would like to share your research with the Technecast community, or have any comments about today's episode, please get in contact at [email protected], or follow us on twitter at @technecast or on Instagram @technepodcast
