*** International excellence ***
Research at QMU into Speech and Language Therapy, Clinical Linguistics, Audiology, Linguistics and Phonetics was assessed in 2008 as part of the Linguistics Unit of Assessment (#58).
The results confirm that two thirds of our research outputs have international significance, where 40% are either world-leading or of an excellent quality. The overall profile for the twenty research-active colleagues returned in this unit, based on a selection of four outputs each, is:
FTE (cat A) |
4* |
3* |
2* |
1* |
unclassified |
15.6 |
10% |
30% |
25% |
30% |
5% |
We should note that none of our research was assessed in the unit "Allied Health Professions" in 2008.
Four star (4*) Quality that is world-leading in terms of originality, significance and rigour.
Three star (3*) Quality that is internationally excellent in terms of originality, significance and rigour but which nonetheless falls short of the highest standards of excellence.
Two star (2*) Quality that is recognised internationally in terms of originality, significance and rigour.
One star (1*) Quality that is recognised nationally in terms of originality, significance and rigour.
