Bob Cryan

Bob Cryan,[1] CBE[2] has been Vice-Chancellor[3] of the University of Huddersfield[4] since 2007.[5]

He came under scrutiny in July 2020 for refusing to stop the provision of training at a Bahraini centre accused of facilitating state-sponsored torture, being provided by his university.[6] He went on record in 2015 to defend Prince Andrew (then his university's Chancellor) against under-age sex allegations arising from the Prince's friendship with Jeffrey Epstein.[7]
