Institutional centres and institutes
Our environment allows interdisciplinary research to flourish, creating fresh ideas and approaches to problem-solving.
We work together on global challenges including climate change, health care and economic growth.
Working across disciplines also enhances our discovery research, creating new ideas and knowledge to keep the UK at the cutting edge of innovation.
Our institutional centres and institutes are crucial to this activity, and make a substantial contribution to our impact, engagement, reputation and research culture.
