A third wave of strikes gets underway today at Stirling University.
Staff at Stirling University, and 10 other Scottish universities, are beginning 5 days of strike action.
It's being led by the University and College Union - over cuts to pensions, pay and working conditions.
The union says a typical staff member will see up to 35% of their guaranteed retirement income slashed.
It's expected students will join the strikes this week.
UCU general secretary Jo Grady said: ‘Vice chancellors and principals across the UK have the power to end these disputes. The money is there to pay staff properly, tackle punishing working conditions and reverse pension cuts that will devastate retirement incomes. Instead, university bosses are choosing to sit on reserves worth tens of billions of pounds and make their own staff suffer. That’s why we are out on picket lines yet again.
'By continuing to ignore the longstanding and serious concerns of staff, principals are not only pushing their own workforce to breaking point, but also doing serious harm to the future of higher education and preventing it from being the best it can be.’
