Impact Acceleration
Impact Acceleration
Investing in people and partnerships, and enhancing access to physical spaces, to enable research and innovation at all levels.
We are delighted to be among only 50 UK universities to have secured funding from UKRI’s Impact Acceleration Account (IAA) scheme.
The funding awarded to Kent by the AHRC, BBSRC and MRC will enable researchers across large parts of the University to be supported to achieve even greater real-world impact. Our IAA opportunities are open to researchers across all divisions and interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged.
