  • Overseas Resits: a Comparison of Russell Group Universities' Policies
    Overseas Resits: A Comparison of Russell Group Universities’ Policies The University of Manchester does not currently allow resit examinations to be held away from the University. This policy contrasts with those of many other Russell Group universities, which allow students whose permanent residence is overseas to take resit exams in their home country, either as a matter of course, or in exceptional circumstances. The table below sets out each Universities’ position on this, with information taken from their websites. Information from some Russell Group Universities (Cambridge, Oxford, Queen Mary, Queens Belfast, UCL) could not be found on their websites, which may indicate that they do not allow the practice of overseas resits.

The University of South Wales, our partner university has put together a series of videos to help you answer this question. https://southwales.cloud.panopto.eu/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=d7f60e55-e50a-456d-a1ff -ac3d00e7ed13 What are the different types of universities? Ancient Universities These include Oxford (founded 1096) and Cambridge (founded 1209) are known as the Ox- bridge group and are the highest ranking universities in the UK St David’s College (1822-28) and Durham University (1832) follow the Oxford structure of col- leges and are considered the highest ranking universities after Oxford and Cambridge.

  • Hauser Review of the Catapult Centres Evidence from the Russell
    Hauser Review of the Catapult Centres Evidence from the Russell Group 1. Summary • Catapults have the potential to be a significant national asset for the UK if research excellence is at the heart of their operations and if long-term funding is available that will allow them to deliver meaningful benefit. • The role universities have undertaken in the High Value Manufacturing (HVM) Catapult has proven invaluable in linking the Centres’ activities into the broader academic research base, across host universities and the whole of the UK, allowing them to build on existing networks of connections and knowledge, and driving forward innovation. The success of the HVM Catapult demonstrates the value in building on existing investments in the research base to deliver economic and other impacts, particularly in a time of very limited public funding. • Catapults should be engaged directly with the UK’s excellent research-intensive universities, enabling them to build on areas of existing strength and international comparative advantage. • The most recent Catapults being established appear much less well linked in with universities and their overall model for establishing engagement with excellence in the research base is unclear. We are very concerned that the value of Catapults will be undermined if engagement with the research base and academic networks within our world-leading universities is not at the core of their remit. • Resources should be focused where there is most comparative advantage to be gained from integrating research, teaching and translation. By locating Catapults within or alongside research-intensive universities, their remit can be enhanced to deliver training and development informed by excellent research and expertise in knowledge exchange and translation.

  • Links Between German U15 and Russell Group Universities
    Links between German U15 and Russell Group universities More than 73,383 scientific publications were co-authored between academics in the UK and Germany between 2013 and 2017. Of these, 19,325 publications (26%) were between academics at Russell Group and German U15 universities, with over 30% growth in the number of co-authored publications between our two groups from 2013 to 2017.1 The average field-weighted citation impact (FWCI) of research carried out in the UK is 1.58 and for research carried out in Germany it is 1.43. However, when our academics work together, the FWCI of their joint scientific publications is 2.95. Collaborations between Russell Group and German U15 researchers deliver an even more enhanced impact of 3.70. The UK and Germany work together more than they work with any other countries in Horizon 2020 (the EU’s multi-annual research and innovation programme). Russell Group and German U15 universities have made over 400 collaborative links funded by Horizon 2020 since the programme began in 2014. A third of German U15’s Horizon 2020 projects include a Russell Group university partner. 2,250 students from Russell Group universities studied or worked in Germany as part of the EU’s Erasmus programme in 2015/16. About the Russell Group The Russell Group represents 24 leading UK universities committed to maintaining the very best research, an outstanding teaching and learning experience and unrivalled links with business and the public sector. Russell Group universities attract and welcome talented staff and students from across the globe and these individuals make a vital contribution to our academic and economic life.
