We have overall responsibility for research planning within our University overseen by the Research Committee. This includes the annual research review process which is undertaken as preparation for the Research Excellence Framework (REF) and research leave.
The Annual Research Review is to ensure continuous assessment and progress of REF outputs as well as an opportunity for colleagues to ensure that their information in the RIS is up-to-date and accurate.
