SpeakerProfessor Emmanuel Ogbonna
From: 29 Nov 2023, 10 a.m.
Professor Emmanuel will reflect on his experience of being the first black professor in Cardiff University and one of a handful of black professors in the Russell Group universities at the time. He will highlight the factors that are important in academic career success, with a particular focus on how academics from ethnic minority backgrounds can navigate these factors to achieve success. Although his experience relates to his experience in academia, there will be overlaps which can be teased out for any professional services colleagues and students who may wish attend.
