We have a track record of successful collaborations across a broad range of business sectors, public organisations and charities. Our expertise and resources have helped our partners overcome strategic challenges, provided new insights, skills, and know-how.
Big or small, local and global, our collaborations with industry have demonstrated real impact, created value, and made a difference.
As an anchor institution to a region possessing a rich military heritage, the University of Lincoln seeks to engage with our defence and security community by sharing knowledge, developing skills, and encouraging innovation through collaborative research.
Whether it is engaging industry experts to address specific skills gaps by launching new academic programmes or pursuing cutting-edge research to solve real-world commercial challenges, we have built a reputation for understanding and responding to the needs of business.
We are proud of our industry partnerships and continue to build sustainable long-term relationships with a diverse range of organisations. Our goal is to help drive local, regional, and national economic growth by delivering the skills industry needs while ensuring our students benefit from the connections we make.
In 2009, in collaboration with Siemens (and now Siemens Energy), the University of Lincoln established the first dedicated new engineering school to be created in the UK for more than two decades. This long-standing collaboration has won a string of national awards and acclaim, including a prestigious Lord Stafford Award and a Times Higher Education Award.
By incorporating industry input into course content, providing work experience placements, and offering valuable opportunities to contribute to cutting-edge research, graduates are prepared to make an immediate contribution on entering the workplace.
The GLEAM network is an exciting new initiative founded by the School of Engineering and Physical Sciences and Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership (GLLEP) Manufacturing Board. The network offers huge potential to support the manufacturing sector across the region and bridge the gap between academia and manufacturing businesses.
The network will work to support the growth and development of SMEs by promoting best practice, manufacturing solutions, and partnership opportunities. GLEAM also aims to showcase technological advances, cutting-edge thinking, and act as a knowledge-transfer vehicle between academia and industry.
Attend events, engage with fellow industry-specialists and tackle some of the challenges facing the sector as part of a wider community.
