Abstract

This article traces Professor Ronan Paddison’s academic career, mostly at the University of Glasgow. The first part describes Ronan’s contribution to learning and teaching and demonstrates the breadth of teaching he undertook, both in the classroom and in the field. The second part considers Ronan’s leadership activities over his 38 years in the department, and not least his contribution to the improvement in the research performance of the department between the first Research Selectivity programme in 1986 and the 2014 Research Excellence Framework.
