World-class research and teaching

As one of the top research universities in the UK, students benefit from the latest knowledge and thinking, taught by staff at the forefront of their disciplines. The results of the latest Research Assessment Exercise confirm the University of East Anglia’s research strength, with over 50% of the University’s research activity deemed to be ‘world leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’, and nearly 90% considered to be of ‘international standing’.

The University is part of the Norwich Research Park, which is internationally recognised for excellence of research in the plant and microbial sciences, food, genetics, biotechnology, health, environmental sciences, computer and information systems and chemistry.

With over 10,000 people, the Norwich Research Park has one of Europe’s largest single-site concentrations of research in Health, Food and Environmental Sciences. This is one of the reasons why Norwich has been ranked fourth in the most highly-cited science cities in the UK for the past 20 years after London, Cambridge and Oxford (New Scientist/Thomson ISI).
