UNIVERSITY OF DUNDEE TO CUT 190 MORE JOBS

The University of Dundee announced plans to cut a further 190 jobs as part of efforts to save £20 million. The cuts form part of a wider restructuring programme following the institution's announcement of a substantial deficit in late 2024. The university has already shed 675 posts through voluntary redundancies since the deficit was disclosed.

The additional job losses represent the next phase of the university's financial recovery plan. No timeline for the further redundancies has been specified in the announcement. The cuts will affect multiple departments across the institution, though specific areas have not yet been identified.

The University of Dundee faces significant financial pressures that necessitated the initial round of voluntary redundancies. The planned cuts demonstrate the depth of the financial challenges the institution confronts. Further details regarding the implementation of the 190 additional redundancies are expected to follow.
