Create Knowledge

Our researchers work with organisations on real questions: how to improve performance, adapt to change and build a more sustainable business. Start with a student project or by sharing data, then build towards a funded partnership.

  • Student projects. Set a real business question for a team of undergraduate or postgraduate students to work on as part of their course.
  • Data and industry access for research. Give our researchers access to your data, sites or people so their research reflects real conditions.
  • PhD research support. Give a doctoral researcher access to your data or organisation.
  • Knowledge Transfer Partnership. A part-funded partnership in which a graduate works in your organisation on an innovation project, supported by our academics.
  • Letters of support. Back our research and innovation funding bids with a letter showing real demand for the work.
  • Joint research bids. Develop and fund proposals to national funders together.
  • Joint PhD supervision and sponsorship. Co-fund and co-supervise a PhD on a question that matters to your sector.
