All staff are invited to a series of town halls to hear about and contribute to the development of our five-year research strategy.

We encourage our whole community – colleagues from all job families as well as researchers and staff who support research – to join us and help shape our vision for the future of research.

Professor Dame Jessica Corner, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research and Knowledge Exchange, will update you on the consultation so far, how to get further involved and plans including workshops that will help shape and achieve our ambitions for research. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions.

The virtual town halls follow the first steps of our university-wide consultation, which received 1,426 responses to questions on the future of research at Nottingham.

There are five town halls, each geared towards one of our faculties. If you are unable to attend your faculty’s event, please feel free to express an interest in attending one that best suits you.

The town halls take place on:

Monday, 17 May 11am-noon – Faculty of Social Sciences

Tuesday, 18 May 10.30-11.30am – Medicine and Health Sciences

Tuesday, 25 May 11am-noon – Arts

Wednesday, 26 May 4-5pm – Science

Thursday, 27 May 3.30-4.30pm – Engineering

Please register your interest (before 5pm, Friday 7 May 2021).
