Department for Innovation Universities and Skills (DIUS)
This new Department brings together functions from the former Department of Trade and Industry, including responsibilities for science and innovation, with further and higher education and skills, previously part of the Department for Education and Skills.
The Department will bring together the nation’s strengths in science, research, universities and colleges to build a dynamic, knowledge-based economy.
The Department will work closely with the new Departments for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (DBERR) and Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) as well as other key Departments - including DCLG and DCMS to ensure the wider personal, community and cultural benefits of education and science are supported.
