We appoint Maltese President as Honorary Professor
Her Excellency, Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca, President of the Republic of Malta, has been appointed as an Honorary Professor by our department.
The appointment marks the first time a President of Malta has been made an Honorary Professor of a foreign university.
At a reception, held on May 6th in Verdala Palace, to mark the appointment, Nick Vaughan-Williams, Professor of International Security and PAIS Head of Department-designate, said:
We are proud and delighted to welcome Her Excellency as an Honorary Professor in PAIS – her attention to economic, social, and political injustice gives politics a human face and this strongly reflects the ethos of our Department".
As part of the Honorary Professorship, Her Excellency is expected to visit the University of Warwick later this year to give an inaugural lecture. There will also be an exchange of students between Malta and Warwick, and new research opportunities.
