About the University of Brighton

Strategic plan

The University of Brighton’s Strategic Plan for 2012–15 sets out our ambitious programme for research, learning and engagement with our students, staff, alumni and partners.

The University of Brighton is committed to conserving, generating, transmitting and sharing knowledge locally, professionally and globally, with a focus on its application for social purpose. We offer a higher education that contributes critically to citizenship and to the public good. Our model of higher education is based on a spirit of enquiry and the active co-production of knowledge amongst staff and students, in learning, teaching and research.

We want university staff and students to be known for their commitment to impact, community and sustainability in their chosen field. This will happen through building on our strengths and making choices for the future to deliver our Strategic plan.
