Nursing First Two
Bradford nurses were amongst the first in the country to qualify as nurse
hysteroscopists, a new role qualifying them to diagnose menstrual problems.
The role has traditionally been undertaken by doctors.
International Foundation
Programme Launched
The University of Bradford welcomed its first intake of international
students taking part in a new programme to help them achieve the necessary
level of English needed to undertake a degree course. The International
Foundation Programme (IFP) is based in the University's Language Unit.
Low Cost of Living
The University of Bradford topped the low cost of living chart as officially
the least expensive student city in the UK, according to a poll published
by the Guardian in conjunction with the Virgin 2003 Alternative Guide
to British Universities.
Pennine and Yorkshire Studies
Unit Launched
The University of Bradford's School of Lifelong
Education and Development launched a new Pennine and Yorkshire Studies
Unit to undertake research into past, present and future aspects of the
county. The Unit will also provide courses of study, and act as a reference
point for the region.
Fitting Tribute
Poetry, prose and photographs capturing the thoughts and feelings of people
with dementia and their carers were captured in a special celebratory
book produced by the University of Bradford's
Dementia Group as part of the Professor Tom Kitwood Memorial Competition.
The book, entitled 'Each person is Special' was launched to coincide with
the Bradford Dementia Group's ten-year anniversary.
