The results are particularly impressive given this is the first time Marjon has entered the REF, which previously took place in 2014. The recognition will mean that Marjon’s burgeoning research capability will be given a huge boost with additional national funding.

Impact case studies are submitted, detailing the real world benefits the research has delivered, and universities are also scored on how they nurture and encourage a dynamic research culture.

Location

Plymouth Marjon University is located in Derriford, just a few miles north of Plymouth in beautiful South West England. Plymouth is a fascinating city with plenty to discover. Offering the unique combination of craggy coastlines, beautiful beaches and rolling moors, it’s a great position from which to explore the rest of the South West - and beyond. The University campus is located to the north of the city, but connections in and out are straightforward.

 SI-UK's service is fast, reliable and efficient. Their consultants are specialists, working closely with all UK universities and, through my personal advice and application assistance, I was able to receive offers from my favorite universities.
