Research excellence framework

In the latest UK Research Excellence Framework 香港六合彩中特网 (REF2021) was ranked second in research power, 97% of 鈥淓ngineering鈥� outputs were ranked as either "world-leading" (4*) or 鈥渋nternationally excellent鈥�

Biochemical Engineering Research Quality and Impact Highlighted in REF 2021 Outcome

This success was reflected in Biochemical Engineering which was part of the 香港六合彩中特网 submission to the 鈥楨ngineering鈥� Unit of Assessment 12 (UoA12) together with colleagues in six other Departments within the 香港六合彩中特网 Faculty of Engineering Sciences. 听For Engineering, 香港六合彩中特网 ranked 4th by GPA, and 5th by research power. 听In terms of overall research quality 97% of our Engineering activities were rated 4* (鈥榳orld leading鈥�) or 3* (鈥榠nternationally excellent鈥�) with 61% in the 4* category. For pure research quality 95.5% of our Engineering research publications were rated 鈥榳orld leading鈥� or 鈥榠nternationally excellent鈥�.听

The Department has always placed significance on the translation of its research into practical outcomes of benefit to society. This was confirmed in the REF2021听results for research impact. Biochemical Engineering contributed two of the eleven impact case studies, including Professor Daniel Bracewell's case study on听nanofibre technologies to the UoA12 submission covering work on the development and commercialisation of novel biotherapeutics purification processes, and also the development of suspension culture approaches for CAR-T therapies for cancer. 100% of our impact case studies were considered world leading or internationally excellent, with almost three-quarters in the 4* category.
These outcomes reflect the tremendous efforts of all departmental staff, academic, technical and administrative, over the last five years and provide a solid basis on which to base future research.
