The Research Strategy for 2020–2025 has a simple message: by working in teams, building on each other’s ideas, and making Glasgow the best place to develop a career, our research transforms lives and changes the world.
The strategy is built on our existing principles: that the quality of our research is valued over its quantity, that the university succeeds when the individual succeeds in their career, and that we value all contributions to research.
