Research and enterprise


During 2010/11 there have been some important developments in research and enterprise at the university. New structures for both were introduced in September 2011 and a new Research, Scholarship and Academic Enterprise Strategy was agreed by Academic Board in February 2011 as a platform for future developments.


The validating arrangements with Lancaster University for research degree provision were extended for a further five years.


This is important as part of the university’s plans to secure Research Degree Awarding Powers.


The university continued to develop its successful Knowledge Transfer Partnership work, establishing new KTPs in Cumbria, a successful development of a KTP with East Lancashire PCT for Respiratory Care and a successful contract for consultancy (re occupational health) audit work with Johnson and Johnson Global.
