Societal impact

We educate students to be socially-engaged professionals through career and employment prospects, by connecting teaching and learning to topical issues and by providing links between teaching and societal issues, practice and Lifelong Learning.

We emphasise transdisciplinary research in co-production with social partners including governments, NGOs and businesses, and business development by way of stakeholder networks and multi-year agreements. We also focus on co-creation activities with the communities and organisations we include in our academic research projects.
