Professor Gill will join UofG from the University of Exeter and succeeds Professor Roibeard (Robby) Ó Maolalaigh, who will step down from the post in July.

She is joining the University’s College of Arts at an exciting time for Glasgow’s cultural and creative industries. The city has gained an international reputation as a creative innovation leader and cultural powerhouse.

I’m delighted to be joining the University of Glasgow as Vice–Principal and Head of the College of Arts. The Arts at Glasgow have a rich history, fantastic strengths across a wide range of subjects, and an enviable reputation for innovation and external engagement.
