Results and submissions
Introduction to the REF results
157 UK higher education institutions (HEIs) made submissions in 34 subject-based
units of assessment
(UOAs). The submissions were assessed by
panels of experts,
who produced an overall quality profile for each submission. Each overall quality profile
shows the proportion of research activity judged by the panels to have met each of the four starred quality levels in steps of 1%.
