Research Support
Research at UTS is led by the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Kate McGrath and underpinned by excellence in research support.
We want to ensure that everything that we do is from a foundation of driving excellence in our people and our systems. What this allows us to do is be more aspirational and more inspirational about what we can achieve from our research. - Professor Kate McGrath
Impact doesn't just magically happen. That’s why the focus of the UTS Research Strategy is on developing a culture of research excellence through the actions we can take to create impact.
Aligned with the Strategy is the Research Outcomes Capability Framework (ROCF) that outlines capabilities for research excellence and sets out how we seek to develop the skills and capabilities of our research community through development and training programs.
The UTS research ecosystem demonstrates the connected and interdependent nature of our research endeavours.
