Research Centres and Groups

Our research centres and groups are led by our most experienced researchers

Our research centres and groups are led by our most experienced researchers and give you a stimulating environment in which to work.

Research is an integral part of the academic life at the University and we support research which helps to underpin its core teaching and learning activities. We encourage applied research, pedagogic research and research which directly supports subject curriculum particularly at the higher levels.
