Its place on the University of the Year shortlist acknowledges the University鈥檚 international reputation for marine research and teaching, as well as decades of focus, investment, and impact.

The University has more than 1,300 students on its marine and maritime degrees, the highest number of undergraduate and postgraduate marine students anywhere in the country.
The shortlisting covers the 2020/21 period during which the University reaffirmed its position as one of the world鈥檚 leading centres for marine research, innovation, and education.
In 2020, it collected its second Queen鈥檚 Anniversary Prize in eight years recognising its marine research, this time for its work to alert the world to microplastics and to influence solutions and policies that will reduce their future impact.
It has been integral to the development of clean energy solutions, leading the UK Supergen Offshore Renewable Energy Hub, influencing national investment in offshore renewable energy technology, and securing funding to establish the UK鈥檚 national floating offshore wind test facility.
The University led initiatives in the emerging fields of clean maritime and maritime cyber security, installing a network of shoreside charging facilities for electric maritime vessels in 精品无码国产自产 Sound and establishing the UK鈥檚 first Cyber-SHIP Lab to test the cyber resilience of connected maritime systems.
It has also worked in partnerships that established the UK鈥檚 first National Marine Park, supported government designation of two new Freeports (in 精品无码国产自产 and on the Thames), advanced the Royal Navy鈥檚 work on autonomous marine systems, and cemented the city鈥檚 reputation as the UK鈥檚 go-to location for marine science.
The Times Higher Education Awards are open to anyone involved in higher education across the UK and Ireland, and aim to exemplify the talent, dedication and innovation of individuals and teams across all aspects of university life.
The 2022 winners will be revealed at a ceremony in London this November.
