UHI Millennium Institute - Local decision-makers

A government consultation has opened to identify whether residents and businesses in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland believe they need a local university in their area. The consultation marks the latest step towards the UHI Millennium Institute gaining full university status as the University of the Highlands and Islands. James Fraser, principal of UHI, said: "We hope many individuals and organisations will take up our appeal to get involved in the consultation as they will help to inform the decision-makers on a crucially important issue for the people, economy and cultural heritage of our region."
