Research Centres and Institutes
Our Research Centres and networks are key mechanisms for the delivery of the School's interdisciplinary research. Their aim is to create a culture of research excellence through active promotion of collaboration, impact, engaged research, and the alignment of School and disciplinary research with the institutional research strategy. Many SNBE colleagues are active within other University Centres such as QUB's Senator George J. Mitchell Institute for Global Peace, Security and Justice, the Heritage Hub and the Centre for sustainability, Equality and Climate Action.
The Senator George J. Mitchell Institute For Global Peace, Security And Justice strives to create dialogue within which all voices can be heard and to underpin the pursuit of peace through world class research. The Institute connects the perspectives of all those who seek to contribute to conflict transformation and social justice – from the insights of world leading researchers to the experience of practitioners, policy makers, politicians and activists.
The Centre For Evidence And Social Innovation is an interdisciplinary research centre, drawing together over 130 academic, research and support staff committed to applied social science research that seeks to improve the lives of children, families and communities.
