About Thevarajan Ramanan

My name is Thevarajan Kanapathippillai (Dev Raj ) and my career in academia began in 1998. Here’s a glimpse into my professional voyage. As a lecturer for Business and Computing curriculums from level 3 to level 7, I have had the opportunity to successfully deliver courses to various groups of students from young adults to mature students, and was promoted to become a member of the management team. I worked as a Programme leader, head of the department, and Academic Dean / Course Director and successfully met the standards, retentions, and achievements of the learners. Today, I am the Dean of Business School / Course Director, orchestrating the academic harmonies of the University of West London and Plymouth Marjon University, Ravensbourne undergraduate and postgraduate courses. After 25 years of UK higher education, I am now part of Frisby College as a Director, a canvas for dreams, a harbor for knowledge seekers.
