We are a Top 30 Research University, with 90% of our research being rated as world-leading or internationally excellent for the impact it makes in our society. 30 RESEARCH UNIVERSITY (Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014-2021)) At Swansea University we have world-leading experts who actively undertake research on-site and across the world through global collaborations and with businesses and organisations internationally. This research not only helps underpin courses with applied and relevant information, but also encourages our students to learn and think in critical and original ways, seeking questions as well as answers. Many of our researchers teach on courses here too, which means you could be working with international experts and frontiers in their fields. As you progress, you could become part of their research team, helping to explore, prevent, and solve global problems.
We are combatting global challenges using interdisciplinary research by encouraging original thinking and collaborative working. Our research is helping prevent, combat, and reverse global challenges; making a difference to people’s lives and industry. We are: • Understanding animal behaviour.
