Research can change lives, solve real world problems and inform us. But how do we as researchers make sure we’re doing research with impact, that has an effect beyond the academy? 

Increasingly the outcome of academic research is not solely being judged on the basis of publications, citations or research grants alone. Instead, research outcomes include consideration of the broader benefits and value to society that it can provide. 

Now more than ever, we need to rethink what research we do, how it's done and the impact we want it to have. 

How do we plan for impact from the very beginning of our academic careers? And how do we address complex problems that we’re interested in, and that society needs practical solutions for? 

Join Associate Professor Martin Bliemel from the Faculty of Transdisciplinary Innovation, along with some of the top thinkers at UTS, to learn how to deliver excellent research with impact.
