Staff at the University of Stirling will strike for three days this week as they protest a pay deduction in response to the marking boycott.
Members of the UCU are taking part in a marking and assessment boycott, effective from April 20, having voted to adopt action short of a strike in a dispute over pay and conditions.
A number of universities have responded by cutting salaries, including Edinburgh, Dundee, and Queen Margaret which have already seen strikes.
UCU members at the University of Stirling will follow suit this week, with a strike on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in response to a 50% wage cut for those taking part in the action.
The union said the deduction does not reflect the percentage of time staff participating in the boycott would normally spend marking and assessing students’ work.
Mary Senior, Scotland official UCU, said: "Staff choose to work in universities because they want to teach and support students.
