Research culture and environment
Support and guidance to ensure research and innovation happens with a positive impact on all those involved.
Building better research cultures together
Research culture and environment is the way that we collaborate, communicate, and interact with each other; it is the behaviours, attitudes, and values that shape how our research is developed, conducted, and used; and it is the mechanisms by which we recognise and reward our work.
Our research culture and environment hub brings together support, resources, case studies and spotlights within four four research culture themes which you can explore below.
Supporting diverse and rewarding careers
Developing our researchers with training and support at all career stages, building capabilities for successful academic and industrial career paths.
Enabling open and impactful research
Supporting our researchers to produce work that is open, reproducible and robust, and has a positive impact on our communities and beyond.
Upholding responsible and ethical research
Enabling our researchers to produce work of the highest quality in its rigour, integrity, sustainability and creativity.
Building collaboration and interdisciplinarity
Mobilising and deepening collaborations across the University, to spark new ideas and deliver new solutions and applications.
Images of Research
The images used to highlight our Research Culture themes were submitted by UoM Postgraduate Researchers as part of the ‘Images of Research’ competition, which forms part of our annual PGR Showcase. These images authentically demonstrate the real-world outcomes of our university’s research culture. You can find more at Research culture and environment themes – Images of Research.
