Research credentials

The University of Worcester emphasises learning guided by research. The scope of our research and the calibre of the people who conduct it, keep our programmes current, relevant and invaluable to high standards of learning.

Business, industry, government and the voluntary sector also increasingly look to academia for help dealing with today’s challenges and enhancing their capacity for growth and success.

We work in partnership with organisations of all sizes and from all sectors, helping them find ways to tackle the real world issues.

As a research-active University, we pride ourselves on the variety of our research and are always pleased to work with commercial organisations. We have the experience, facilities and expertise to carry out a wide range of research and consultancy projects, tailored to your needs.

We have always been conscious to avoid ‘ivory tower’ research for its own sake and ensure our links to public and private sector organisations keep us in touch with constant change.

Talks and workshops

You can feed your appetite for knowledge at the University’s research seminars, which run throughout the year on topical subjects, often closely related to individual research projects. We invite distinguished speakers from the University and beyond to deliver these free lectures.
