Legislative requirements

The University of Stirling aims to integrate the promotion of equality and diversity into all its activities, from key decisions on its mission and strategic objectives through to day-to-day operations.

The University does not tolerate harassment, victimisation or unjustified discrimination on the grounds of gender, race/ethnic origin, disability, age, religion or belief, sexual orientation, pregnancy, marital or civil partnership status, caring responsibility or other irrelevant characteristics, and is committed to working with diversity in a wholly positive way to promote fairness, inclusiveness, and good relations.

All staff and students (whether existing or potential) and visitors to the University's campuses should receive fair treatment whatever their relationship with the University.

The University is committed to embedding the principles of equality and fairness in all its policies, functions and decisions.
