REF 2021 results
Pioneering research recognised internationally
REF 2021 follows REF 2014, and is the most recent UK-wide assessment of research excellence. The results for this REF assessment were published on 12 May 2022.
REF 2021 classified 86 per cent of the University of Chichester's outputs as internationally renowned, and 12 per cent as world-leading – the strongest mark set by the assessment.
Nearly twice as many of our academic staff contributed to REF 2021 as did to the assessment in 2014, and those areas which were entered into both REF assessments had progressed as a whole.
Among our strongest results were:
Sport – which was deemed 73 per cent internationally excellent or world-leading
English and Creative Writing – judged 68 per cent internationally excellent or world-leading
History – measured at 66 per cent internationally excellent or world-leading
157 British universities participated in REF 2021.
