provide a collaborative and supportive environment that nurtures high quality, impactful research and knowledge exchange with international visibility,
increase the University’s national and international profile and reputation in distinct areas of research strength, as well as foment further research opportunities, and
be exemplars of best practice in creating and sustaining a positive and inclusive research culture and environment in which people can flourish.
