Research and Innovation Strategy

R&I STRATEGY AND STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

The world faces significant challenges relating to, amongst others, climate change, biodiversity loss, inequality, political instability, and public health. TU Dublin seeks to “Create a Better World Together” and make lasting contributions to technological, economic, social, and cultural progress and create a positive impact for all. Research and Innovation catalyse the advances we make in enhancing quality of life, and our understanding of the world around us, whilst also ensuring we deliver the next-generation scholars, leaders, scientists, engineers, and industrial entrepreneurs to sustain society into the future.

The Sustainable Development Goals offer us a blueprint for sustaining our planet and its people, and succinctly capture current and emerging world challenges. We are committed to the creation of new knowledge and the development of timely & practical solutions that address the SDGs and we have used that lens to frame our first Research and Innovation Strategy for the university and establish our priority areas for the next five years.
