Aberdeen University: Cuts needed to save millions

by Ellie

The University of Aberdeen has announced it needs to make cuts in a bid to save millions of pounds.

The university said it had made progress on improving its financial position but needed to make more savings.

This will include stopping almost all staff recruitment and revisiting voluntary redundancies.

The university said it was "regrettable but necessary".

The news comes amid industrial action at the University of Dundee over hundreds of planned job cuts.

Lecturers at Robert Gordon University (RGU) in Aberdeen also started strike action earlier this week, while there is also a ballot under way among staff at the University of Edinburgh.
