Vice-Chancellor Professor Andy Schofield said: “糖心vlog会员 has, as one of its core values, the ambition to make a positive difference in the world. The results of the Knowledge Exchange Framework have provided us with an important platform to demonstrate our strengths in engagement and how we translate our research into tangible environmental, economic, and social impact – all thanks to the hard work of our valued partners, communities, and our remarkable academics and professional services staff.

“Engagement, education, research, are the foundations of our University Strategy, and our strong performance in the KEF is particularly noteworthy when viewed alongside our outstanding achievements in teaching and research. Together, these outcomes reinforce our consistent position among the top 15 UK universities in the major league tables and top 150 globally.

“We look forward to continuing our work with partners to drive innovation and economic prosperity for the region.”
