The University of Nottingham

As a world-class research university, we strive to advance our research community and the discoveries they make, by providing an outstanding environment and sufficient resources, to enable blue-sky and translational research excellence to flourish.

We recognise how important it is to support research with no immediate or obvious commercial benefits – but which often leads to world-changing inventions – as well as research whose explicit purpose it is to turn discovery into concrete material benefits and products.

Our investment in research is evident: currently 90% of our research is rated as being of “international standard”.

The Campaign will build upon existing strengths and capacity by supporting research priorities that tackle global issues such as carbon capture and storage, how to produce medicines with minimal impact on the environment, and developing training and diagnostic tools to aid better and more cost effective patient care.We will grow our post-graduate, doctoral training and research programmes across a wide range of disciplines, ensuring that students and staff accrue the benefits of state-of-the-art facilities and participation in a dynamic world-class international research community.
