Researcher development and research leadership

 

Thematic focus

  • Each of our themes will bring together interdisciplinary teams to research, innovate, and promote the impact of the knowledge created. Through these themes, our teams will unite to find new ways of tackling research questions that will bring together fundamental, practice-based and applied research to deliver significant impact.

Knowledge exchange and commercialisation

  • Our research and innovation activities will ensure that there is a strong focus on regional issues. We will use this knowledge to support the East Midlands in its ambition to close the productivity gap.

  • We will ensure that our research feeds into our high-quality teaching to help provide students with intellectual and practical skills.
