As we reflect on 2019’s achievements and look forward to another remarkable year of discoveries at Nottingham, my colleagues across our faculties are ready to update you on the University’s Research Strategy. These briefings also underline our determination to hear and learn from the dedicated and exceptional people at school, department and faculty level who support our research, helping to ensure that our strategy is agile and evolving.   

 “Your knowledge, ideas and experience are essential in helping the University continuously develop a sector-leading environment and support for the delivery of discoveries that change lives.”
