Aligned to our academic themes of wellbeing and sustainability, we established six new research centres: Cardiovascular Health; Mental Health Practice, Policy and Law Research; Military Research, Education & Public Engagement; Child & Family Law and Policy; Transport Research Innovation; and Tourism Research. The research centres will strengthen the university’s visibility around particular research areas, both within the UK and internationally and we are exploring opportunities for joint supervision, staff exchanges and joint research bids. We continue to implement our Researcher Concordat Action plan, raising awareness of support for Mental Health and Wellbeing for researchers, benchmarking of current contractual situations for researchers, and increased provision of career planning support for contract researchers. We are developing our future action plan for the next three years (2023-2025) which will be submitted to Vitae in January 2023 for external review. We have formally launched our Early Career Academic Development programme. The programme is a tailored development plan for new academic staff and consists of supportive actions and learning interventions over a two year period. All new staff in this programme will receive a reduced teaching workload to allow a focus on activities relating to research, and scholarly activities.
