About Peter Briggs

(Michael) Peter Briggs OBE was Master of the Company of Educators in the City of London in 2011/2012. He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2010 New Year Honours, shortly after his retirement from Roehampton University. At Roehampton, he was both Principal of Southlands College and a Pro Vice-Chancellor of the University. Prior to taking up his role at Roehampton, Briggs had been Chief Executive of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, which was subsequently rebranded the British Science Association in 2009. He spent 22 years at the BA, initially being responsible for developing its work with young people, then taking responsibility for media links and for enhancing the Association's growing role in the "public understanding of science" before being appointed Executive Secretary in 1990. Briggs graduated from the University of Sussex with a BSc in molecular science in 1966 and a DPhil in theoretical chemistry in 1969. After two post-doctoral posts in the universities of Sheffield and Bristol, he changed tack and worked for seven years in the voluntary sector with roles in the Overseas Division of the Methodist Church and Christian Aid. He was awarded an honorary degree of D.Sc. by the University of Leicester in 2002.
