Research Environment

Excellence in research underpins all of Royal Holloway’s activities and aspirations.  We aspire to produce world-leading research that substantially advances the knowledge base, and that fosters transformational impacts for individuals, society, and the environment.  We also aspire to give our undergraduate and postgraduate students an education that is informed by the highest standards of research and scholarship. 

We recognise that we have a responsibility to deliver excellent outcomes in respect of the public investment that supports our work and to support and protect our staff.

In doing so, our work is driven by core research commitments and values such as academic freedom, advancing and sharing knowledge, openness, integrity, ethical standards, mutual respect, and equality, diversity and inclusion. The high-level expectations are underpinned by the Code of Good Practice for Research.
