Investing in exciting research and supporting our inspiring people means looking ahead. What will be the next big ideas that will drive change and transform society over the next ten years?
The university wants to look beyond existing areas of research strength at Nottingham to find the next big ideas with the potential to change the world.
We also want to think differently about who leads major funding applications and initiatives, enabling new voices to come forward with ideas and ensuring they have access to the support they need to succeed.
Please submit your ideas via this short online form or contact the Research Growth team via email. Once we receive your idea the team will contact you for a chat.
We’re looking for big, long-term challenges and people who are trying to do something new and different.
Depending on your needs, we’ll provide support in:

Professor Tom Rodden, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research and Knowledge Exchange, said: “In my previous roles at the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, we ran a similar big ideas initiative, which identified exciting, adventurous and potentially transformative ideas.
“I am sure our research community will also generate a number of big ideas to help shape the next generation of research and innovation priorities for Nottingham.”
