That the Parliament welcomes The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2021, which has named Robert Gordon University (RGU) as Scottish University of the Year; understands that RGU placed 8th in the UK for student experience and climbed 60 places from last year’s university rankings to 12th in the UK for teaching quality; acknowledges that this is the latest in a series of strong results for RGU, including retaining its title as the top modern university in Scotland in the Guardian University Guide 2021 and recently being shortlisted for three 2020 Times Higher Education awards,  including Outstanding Entrepreneurial University of the Year, Business School of the Year and Innovative Teacher of the Year, and congratulates all of the university's staff and students on continuing to achieve fantastic outcomes.
