Research and Knowledge Exchange Institutes (RKEIs)

Each of our RKEIs share the same overarching aims, which are to bring together researchers (staff and students) and to foster interdisciplinary working. By strengthening existing relationships and building new collaborations, the RKEIs are also well-placed to work closely with external partners and communities.

Research & Knowledge Exchange Institutes

All three RKEIs run a range of public events throughout the year from public lecture series through to sandpit style networking days. We welcome your input and look forward to collaborating on future projects.
