REF 2021 Results
In the Research Excellence Framework (REF 2021), EaStCHEM’s excellence across research and impact was rewarded by more than 99% of our research outputs being assessed as either “world-leading” or “internationally excellent”, and 100% of our impact case studies being assessed as “outstanding” or “very considerable”.
We are one of only three chemistry submissions to achieve a 100% “world- leading” score for our research environment.
