Research quality

National Centre for Biomedical Engineering Science.

'As NUI Galway develops increasing numbers of world-class centres of research excellence, so it attracts internationally-renowned academics and record levels of research funding across the full range of Faculties. The University is now firmly established in the top tier of research-intensive universities in Europe. NUI Galway is increasingly becoming a first choice postgraduate destination for large numbers of graduates in Ireland, and across the world.

The University owes much of its success to the professionalism of its staff, at all levels. It is the staff that underpins the strong inter-faculty dimension that has been such a feature of research at NUI Galway, a feature that characterises some of the highest quality research results being generated in research institutions worldwide.

In awarding NUI Galway the title of University of the Year 2003, The Sunday Times paid tribute to its strong research profile and commented how, at the University, excellence in research has resulted in a consolidation of world-class expertise in areas such as biomedical engineering science, marine science, and environmental science and that, significantly, it beat all other colleges in attracting a disproportionate amount of research funding.

In its Academic Plan 2003–2008 the University committed to develop further world-class research programmes that continue to attract world-class researchers and students of the highest calibre.

When you become a postgraduate student at NUI Galway, you will be taking part in programmes that are properly resourced and structured, sustain and reward excellence, and respond dynamically to changing global needs.'— Vice-President of Research, NUIG.
