Re:search Re:imagined

Research informs all of our courses and in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (2021) results, 86% of NTU’s research impact was assessed as either ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’.

To us, research is about more than writing papers and proposing new ideas. By daring to think differently, we’re disrupting the research landscape and finding the answers to the questions that really matter. From social media addiction to sustainable farming, we’re inspiring the brightest minds to rise up and find solutions to some of the most significant global challenges facing society.
