Key Objectives
World Class Research: Research is of central importance in everything we do. It informs our teaching and helps us to make a difference to business, industry and society as a whole. Almost 90% of our research is rated ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ (Times Higher Education’s analysis of REF2021).
Workplace Ready Graduates: We offer a flexible, innovative learning environment where you’ll enjoy a first-class experience. We’re known for our excellent industrial placements and opportunities to study abroad. And we’re committed to producing graduates who are ready for the workplace.
Digital Strategy: Our Digital Strategy sets out how the innovative and ambitious use of digital technology, together with its transformative capability for our people, processes, systems and data can underpin and inspire the University’s strategic ambitions in the development of our next strategic plan, Strathclyde 2030.
Social and Environmental Sustainability Strategy: Social and environmental sustainability sits at the heart of our institutional strategy. It is a key priority that supports the achievement of the Strathclyde 2030 goals.
