Oversight 

Formal research policy at the University is agreed by the Research & Innovation Board (RIB), a committee of Senate.

On a more informal level policy is discussed by the Directors of Research Network.

On a day to day basis, we have responsibility for monitoring the research policy developments outside the University that may affect it. For those interested, the Times Higher, Research Professional and Wonkhe provide a useful and comprehensive overview of developments.
