The Research Support and Governance Team provides support with pre and post award of research funding and through its Research Culture and Practice team it aims to provide a vibrant research environment for our research community and the end users of our research.
The latest Research Excellence Framework (REF 2021) found that 97% of research at Oxford Brookes was internationally recognised or higher. It also found that 70% was judged to be of ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ quality with a greater focus on research impact beyond academia.
