Research can be a slow burn, it takes time, and the impact and benefits from research won’t always be realised straight away. 

As discovered throughout the Impact at UTS podcast, research with impact involves long term relationship building and ongoing engagement with research partners, be that industry, government or community. 

But even researchers can get impatient. What if you want your work to create change in the world right now? How do you go about it? 

In the final episode of Research Impact: UTS Case Studies, we hear from Professor Thalia Anthony, a Law Professor who is leading in her field when it comes to translating her research into real world impact. She discusses impact strategies including time management, being media savvy and the ethics of collaborating, particularly when you are just starting out. 

We’ll also hear from Professor Kate Barclay, a FASS marine social scientist who provides some valuable advice on securing research funding outside of traditional funding schemes. 

And to conclude the series, we’re going to get some pearls of wisdom from UTS research rock stars who have accumulated decades of evidence and insights on conducting impact-led research. They share some parting thoughts for early career researchers. 



Research Engagement and Impact Support at UTS 

It’s important to know that you don’t need to undertake your research impact journey on your own. There is support for you at UTS, including from your Faculty Research Engagement Manager (FREM) or equivalent professional staff member. In episode seven we hear from Sarah Angus who outlines her role as a FREM and how she works with academics on funding and external research collaborations.
