A report published today provides an in-depth examination of the impact case studies (ICSs) developed by institutions as part of their submissions to REF 2021.
The report was produced on behalf of the four UK higher education funding bodies and UK Research and Innovation.
REF 2014 and REF 2021 used ICSs to help assess research impact beyond academia. These documents detail a project’s impact and underpinning research.
The body of over 6,000 REF 2021 ICSs provides a rich resource for analysis and showcases the research undertaken at UK higher education institutions (HEIs).
