Strategic Objective 1

Our research is delivered by many colleagues from inside and outside the University, working on many kinds of activities. To ensure that everyone is appropriately recognised, rewarded, and valued for their contributions, we must expand our traditional definitions of success to include innovative research methods and outputs while continuing to value established approaches. We must diversify funding sources to ensure sustainability, and measure research impacts responsibly.
