** Research Assessment Exercise
----------------------------
A link to the newly released Research Assessment Exercise results has
been added to the NISS Campus site. You can now access results for 2001,
1996 and 1992 from the same place, at:
http://www.niss.ac.uk/sites/quality.html
The same address will also give access to quality assessment and
accreditation information for both the Further and Higher Education
sectors.
The Research Assessment Exercise is carried out (approximately) every 5
years, to review and grade the research carried out by individual
subject departments in United Kingdom universities in terms of its
national and international standing. It is of significant interest as
it helps determine the funding awarded to the universiites and also
influences the choice of prospective postgraduates and staff,
particularly from overseas.
