oxford physics research excellence recognised by ref 2021

Today, 12 May 2022, the UK funding bodies have published the outcomes of the recent national research assessment exercise, the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021. The REF 2021 results show Oxford’s Department of Physics’ submission had the largest volume of world-leading research [1]. Professor Louise Richardson, Vice-Chancellor at the University of Oxford, said: ‘The REF 2021 results demonstrate once again that Oxford is a research powerhouse and the impact case studies highlight our effectiveness in putting this... ‘The REF is one of the few opportunities to see the remarkable breadth of our research and to draw together all parts of the collegiate University in a single collaborative effort, and I would... Professor Ian Shipsey FRS, Head of the Department of Physics at the University of Oxford, said: ‘The REF 2021 results mean Oxford Physics has overall the largest amount of world-leading research of any UK... Relative to our performance in 2014, we have improved in our impacts, our outputs and our environment, and we are delighted that our progress to enhance these further has been recognised.

I should like to thank all my colleagues for their impactful research and the way that so many work together to make Oxford Physics a very conducive environment in which to conduct world-leading research.’ Highlights of our research in action can be found here. While new technologies seen as ‘game changer’ for national-level research assessment, study finds vehement opposition, particularly among humanities scholars The Research Excellence Framework has been postponed for three months ‘to take stock and ensure alignment with the UK government’s priorities and vision for higher education’. But how radical should the changes be? Should there be any at all?

Is it time to start again? We present five very different views Breaking the link between researchers and their outputs harms academic mobility and disciplinary excellence, argue professors Three-month review of Research Excellence Framework could trigger more radical rethink on institutional priorities and spending, sector figures warn Percentage of submission meeting of the standard of: Percentage of submission meeting of the standard of:

While new technologies seen as ‘game changer’ for national-level research assessment, study finds vehement opposition, particularly among humanities scholars The University of Oxford’s results in REF 2021 are given below. Results are shown as the percentage of the submission achieving the following starred levels: 4* – quality that is world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour3* – quality that is internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour, but which falls short if the highest standards... Unclassified (U/C) – Quality that falls below the standard of nationally recognised work, or work which does not meet the published definition of research for the purposes of this assessment. The overall results for the University as a whole are given as an FTE-weighted average of the subject results.

The table then shows the results for each subject area submission. We also show the total number of full time equivalent (FTE) staff submitted for each subject.
