Our Research
Queen Mary is in the top 10 per cent in the UK for the quality of research across a number of subject areas (RAE 2008)
Our academics are engaged in top quality research and together form a lively research community. Individuals, specialist groups, and interdisciplinary research centres generate an impressive research income and make use of QM’s first-class facilities. The results are original, exciting and inspiring. Most of all, our work is making a difference to lives at every level – locally, nationally, globally.
