Simple, Transparent and Strategic

The main objective of the RA2018 project is to design a straightforward, logical and equitable methodology for the allocation of financial resources to Colleges and Support Groups on a rolling three-year basis, set within a clear ten-year context. It will provide transparency of where and how income is generated, support the delivery of the University’s longer-term strategic objectives and ensure long-term financial sustainability.
