Scott Fleming is Professor of Sport and Leisure Studies. Formerly the Director of Research in the Cardiff School of Sport (2009-2013), but now based in Research and Enterprise Services, his role involves engagement, development, enhancement and evaluation of:

• pan-University research governance arrangements;
  
• governance of postgraduate research degrees to ensure compliance with sector-led quality management;
  
• liaison with external stakeholders in the pursuit of consistent research excellence; and
  
• operational management of Research Degrees Committee.
  

He is also Chair of the University Ethics Committee and leads the University's Athena SWAN Self-Assessment Team.

Scott has a long-standing interest in 'race relations' and youth studies which form part of a wider portfolio of research linked to equality and diversity. His work embraces history, philosophy, psychology, sociology and management studies, however some recent projects have been concerned with organisational cultures and aspects of sport development linked to public health. Throughout his career, he has maintained an interest in research methods and research ethics.
