Research and Development (R&D)

The University of Stirling - your research and development partner

We can help you on short pieces of contract research through to a long-term R&D project. Working with our Researchers can provide you with access to the latest developments in the field, our state-of-the-art facilities and worldwide networks of related professionals.

What can we do for you?

We aim to develop our Research & Development activities into long-term, mutual collaborations. These provide you with more useful research outputs, and our staff and students with more stimulating research opportunities.

What we can do for you will depend on a variety of factors:

• your needs
• how our expertise matches those needs
• the availability of funding, both from your organisation and from external funding sources (such as Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (www.ktpcentre.com), SMART: Scotland Awards (www.scotland.gov.uk), Collaborative R&D funds and Industrial Studentships).

How can we help?

For further information, please contact the Research & Enterprise Office who will assess your needs and match you to experts who can help you.

Alternatively, you can browse our Expertise Register to find a researcher working in your area of interest.
