Throughout its distinguished history the University of Hull has placed research and enterprise at the core of its academic offering. In 2013 research and enterprise – competing on quality through innovation – remains central to the University’s vision for the future.

• On 22nd March, 1973, a research team at the University of Hull made a breakthrough that led to the birth of the first generation of LCDs (Liquid Crystal Displays). Their thinking revolutionised electronic displays around the world and has continued to inspire screen technology today.

UK Landscape and key sector trends

Definitions

• Research grants and contracts

• Research can be defined as original investigation, undertaken to gain new knowledge and understanding, which may be directed towards a specific aim or objective. It can use existing knowledge in experimental development to produce new or substantially improved materials, devices, products and processes including design and construction. It excludes routine testing and analysis of materials, components and processes.

• The term ‘research grant’ is restricted to research projects funded by the UK research councils, charities and the higher education funding bodies.

• All other externally financed research projects are classified as ‘research contracts’.

Trends in the Sector

• The funding landscape for HE research is changing:

– Funding is concentrated with the top institutions

receiving the largest proportion of both grant and

QR funding

– The policy landscape is evolving and efficiency

drives are having a significant impact

– Collaborative and challenge led research is

becoming more important, leading to larger grants

– The above changes are in an increasingly

competitive sector

Summary• Landscape

– Efficiency is a key driver in the sector. The amount

of cash in the system is not expected to change

significantly

– Investments will be increasingly delivered via

longer, larger grants and thematic programmes

– Collaboration and challenge driven research is

becoming more important

• Focus research investment

• Focus on collaboration

• Continue to improve research support infrastructure

Research & Enterprise TransformationMay 2016

Page 26: v. Contracts Increasing Research Income Grants€¦ · Offshore Wind in the Humber –Class 101 A380 75m 154m Siemens 6MW Turbine 210m Key Facts •UK is the worlds biggest OSW market

From the Strategic plan 2016-2020:

As a university with a research-driven mission, we aim to significantly increase our level of research and enterprise activities, outputs and impact, recognising research and enterprise as part of a continuum.

As an internationally engaged anchor institution, our research and enterprise activities will provide solutions to global as well as local and regional challenges. The quality and impact of our research and enterprise will be benchmarked on an international level, and international collaboration and cooperation will be encouraged.

Focussing our research engagement and innovative enterprise

Page 27: v. Contracts Increasing Research Income Grants€¦ · Offshore Wind in the Humber –Class 101 A380 75m 154m Siemens 6MW Turbine 210m Key Facts •UK is the worlds biggest OSW market

We will:

• Deliver world-class research by enhancing our researcher cohort, organisational structures

and supporting systems and environment.

• Review support structures for research and enterprise, early career researchers and

postgraduate research students, and build organisational capacity in enterprise delivery.

• Prioritise our investments in research to improve our institutional position in the next

Research Excellence Framework (REF).

• Create a robust research community, is based on an empowered researcher cohort, respects

and recognises contribution, and nurtures talent.

• Increase the proportion of our research and enterprise which is funded externally.

• Promote interdisciplinary research activities and a collaborative approach, embedding the

University-level institutes.

• Build strategic partnerships with industry, the public sector and other educational

institutions to strengthen our research and enterprise endeavours.

Page 28: v. Contracts Increasing Research Income Grants€¦ · Offshore Wind in the Humber –Class 101 A380 75m 154m Siemens 6MW Turbine 210m Key Facts •UK is the worlds biggest OSW market

We will (2):• Exploit our intellectual property and know-how through spin-out companies, commercial

vehicles, licensing and the development of services.

• Champion open access publication and other forms of open scholarship to enhance the

dissemination and impact of our research and enterprise.

• Be a ‘postgraduate-friendly’ university, ensuring that postgraduate students benefit from an

integrated student experience that supports their personal, professional and career

development.

• Enhance our postgraduate students’ study environment, and ensure that their need for social

spaces is met.

• Broaden our engagement with research and industrial partners, and establish strategic

relationships where it is beneficial to do so.

• Participate in the Humber LEP, liaise with other LEPs, and engage with relevant governance,

industrial and business organisations and in response to devolved authorities as they

unfold.

Page 29: v. Contracts Increasing Research Income Grants€¦ · Offshore Wind in the Humber –Class 101 A380 75m 154m Siemens 6MW Turbine 210m Key Facts •UK is the worlds biggest OSW market

Immediate priorities for the R&E centre:• Review support structures for research and enterprise, early career researchers

and postgraduate research students, and build organisational capacity in

enterprise delivery.

• Build strategic partnerships with industry, the public sector and other educational

institutions to strengthen our research and enterprise endeavours.

• Exploit our intellectual property and know-how through spin-out companies,

commercial vehicles, licensing and the development of services.

• Participate in the Humber LEP, liaise with other LEPs, and engage with relevant

governance, industrial and business organisations and in response to devolved

authorities as they unfold.

Our Challenge – Stand Out Amongst the CrowdOver 120 UK universitiesOver 22,000 global universities

Page 31: v. Contracts Increasing Research Income Grants€¦ · Offshore Wind in the Humber –Class 101 A380 75m 154m Siemens 6MW Turbine 210m Key Facts •UK is the worlds biggest OSW market

Why a new structure?We need to support the delivery of the new strategic plan and the implementation of the new shape of the University. In doing so we must ensure the following:• Alignment – the central team is aligned with delivery in the faculties and

other professional services.• Investment – continue to spend the additional investment (£500k) given to

the central team last year to improve the University’s research and enterprise performance.

• Influence - the central team has the senior positions to have influence in decision making for key issues.

• Specialist Skills – deliver excellence in performance through the development of specialist skills and focused delivery.

• Resilience - there is organisational capability and capacity to minimise ‘single points failure’.

• Development – there are pathways for progression and the potential for individual development.

• Systems – there are robust systems, policies and procedures to ensure efficient operations and consistent delivery.

What it means to our team - ResearchA new structure will:• Transform our approach to supporting researchers and the University’s

ambition to develop a robust and ambitious research community.• Support and drive the development of mutually beneficial research

collaborations. • Align our service with the new faculty structures and the Research

Institutes.• Provide grant lifecycle support and develop effective processes and

procedures to maximise the quality of submitted proposals.• Deepen our relationships with funding bodies and maximise our funder

intelligence.• Ensure the successful implementation of RIS and its roll-out to the

research community.• Provide enhanced resource to support high quality research and impact,

ensuring the best possible outcome of the next Research Excellence Framework (REF).

• Ensure the University keeps abreast of current research policy and has the right governance structures in place to react to a changing research landscape.

Key Reasons for Success

• Strong consortium representing key stake holders in the problem

• Planning the EOI with a view to success at 2nd stage

– Work packages, estimates of resources, timelines

– Meetings for 2nd stage pre-arranged in diary

– Use of organised shared project spaces (Box)

– 3 strong bid writers (UoH (2), Peel Ports)
