Staff at Dundee University have begun three weeks of strike action over the institution’s plans to cut jobs due to a potential £30m deficit. The University and College Union (UCU) Scotland said that 74% of its members had backed strike action, on a turnout of 64%. More than 450 UCU members, comprising academic and support staff, will strike each weekday for the next three weeks. It is expected lectures and classes will be cancelled.
