Problem 3: future REF criteria
Quality Research Outputs: articles, books or
other research outputs.
Impact: in the form of case studies which
demonstrate a distinctive
social, economic or cultural impact outside
academia.
Research Environment: the quality
of the environment within which the research conducted.

“Weakness in EXCELLENCE:
Involvement of different sectors is limited,
with no non-academic beneficiaries”
“Weakness in IMPACT:
highly focussed on academic activities, and
lacks an advanced communication strategy”
“Weakness in IMPLEMENTATION:
limitied exposure to
non-academic partners & infrastructures”
