Professor Greta Bosch

Prof Greta Bosch has been at Exeter University since 2002. Greta is an Aspire Mentor.

Greta's research interests lie in International Human Rights Law, specifically Equality, non-discrimination and affirmative action. She has published on human rights and racial equality with special reference to South Africa, as well as interdisciplinary approaches to legal education. Most recently Greta and her team were awarded a competitive grant from the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) to look at what causes disparate attainment for ethnic groups in legal professional assessments. This research helps to increase understanding about the factors that are driving this picture and to identify steps that could be taken to make a difference and help to close the attainment gap. It was an extensive programme that was completed in 2024.

Greta has convened the interdisciplinary module Law3169 Equality and Diversity at Work, and taught on Law2103 EU Law. Currently, Greta is convening Law2095 Equality and Diversity and teaches on Legal Foundations and Public International Law.

In 2018 Greta received the National Teaching Fellowship Award, one of the most prestigious national awards for higher education teaching, for individuals who have made an outstanding impact on student outcomes and the teaching profession. And in 2019 Greta was awarded a Principal Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy for her sustained record of impact at a strategic level in relation to teaching and learning, and her wider commitment to acadmic practice.
