Research
Our vision: To develop research which has an impact on the real world of health and social care.
- We provide a creative and dynamic environment for the conduct of ground-breaking research.
- Our commitment to inter-disciplinary, cutting-edge content unites academics, researchers, postgraduate students and research users in a shared community of enquiry.
Our research is organised in research centres based within our schools:
- School of Health, Sport & Rehabilitation Sciences
- School of Nursing & Midwifery
- School of Social Work, Psychology & Public Health
Our research projects cover the spectrum of health and social care and involve working with a wide range of partners including the Department of Health, local agencies and organisations and service users and we are excited by the considerable growth in activity, in all areas, over the last few years.

- Students have access to a wide range of supervisory expertise and excellent facilities
- We also have a strong international focus and attract students from countries such as Libya, Russia and the United States as well as from within the UK
