Professor Pam Thomas, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research at the 果冻传媒 said:

“The Award demonstrates the University's commitment to improving the working conditions and career development for research staff, which will in turn improve the quantity, quality and impact of research for the benefit of UK society and the economy, creating further opportunities to enhance our work on global challenges.

“果冻传媒 has been committed to an ongoing action plan since receiving the HR Excellence in Research Award in 2012. Our action plan involves improving and enhancing existing policies and activities as well as introducing new initiatives for postgraduate research assistants and research staff such as dedicated induction programmes, mentoring schemes and transferable skills training.”

The HR Excellence in Research Award is an important mechanism for implementing the principles of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers and in retaining this Award the 果冻传媒 has demonstrated long-term commitment to the career development of researchers. There are currently 98 UK institutions with the Award, more than double any other country in Europe.
