At the University of Lincoln, we understand the importance of providing staff and students with the best possible environment for pursuing research that can help our communities, improve lives, and change the world.
Our supportive and inclusive research culture, where collaboration and knowledge exchange is fostered through a range of specialist institutes, schools, and policy initiatives, remains the bedrock of our success, while major investments in new buildings and state-of-the-art research facilities ensure that we nurture creativity and deliver impactful research that addresses regional and global priorities.
To help researchers develop the knowledge and skills needed to meet their career goals and aspirations, we regularly invite expressions of interest for externally funded fellowship schemes. These schemes offer a range of opportunities for researchers currently based in the UK and around the world, who can be hosted by the University of Lincoln for the duration of the fellowship.
Our postgraduate students are an integral part of our research community and we regularly provide opportunities to work with our expert academics on exciting research projects through our range of studentships.
We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of rigour and integrity in all aspects of our research. We do this by supporting good conduct and helping to prevent misconduct, upholding the commitments outlined in the UUK Concordat to Support Research Integrity, which provides a comprehensive national framework for good research conduct.
The University has developed a code of practice for research and a set of policies designed to encourage the completion of studies of the highest quality, to meet our ambitions as set out in our Strategic Plan 2022-27.
You can take advantage of the high-quality facilities and specialist research spaces we offer across our buildings on campuses to help support your research, including scientific laboratories, state-of-the-art clinical suites, specialist arts studios, and access to advanced research equipment and resources.
Undergraduate students at Lincoln have the opportunity to gain hands-on research experience, develop transferable skills, and even contribute to new knowledge through our competitive bursary scheme, where they can work alongside experts on a range projects across all disciplines.
The University is a signatory of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, setting out clear standards that research staff can expect from the institution that employs them.
The Concordat is an agreement between funders and employers of research staff to improve the employment and support for research careers in UK higher education. It not only helps to improve the environment and culture within which research is conducted, but also recognises the role of research and innovation in delivering the UK’s industrial and economic strategies.
The University's Vice Chancellor Neal Juster has signed the Letter of Commitment to the Concordat for the Environmental Sustainability of Research and Innovation Practice. The Concordat represents a shared ambition for the UK to continue delivering cutting-edge research, but in a more environmentally responsible and sustainable way.
Our annual Images of Research competition showcases some of the high-quality, impactful studies that are taking place at Lincoln, giving postgraduate students and academics the opportunity to share their research experiences via a unique image and a 150-word abstract.
