This website has been created by the Knowledge Transfer Team as your information portal for all the projects and knowledge transfer activities UCLan is undertaking, as well as advising on the support available to obtain funding for research and knowledge transfer activities.

Knowledge Transfer has always been a part of UCLan's activities; central to this is the way knowledge is transferred into business and the community through the skills and attributes of our students, graduates and researchers, and from businesses and the community to UCLan.

"We believe that teaching, research and knowledge transfer are mutually supportive and essential elements to a University."  
Alan Roff, Deputy Vice Chancellor, UCLan

Universities are much more than just teaching establishments, research, attracting funding to run projects to transfer academic knowledge and ideas, plus working in partnership is vital in developing the knowledge economy.

Being a student is not just about gaining your qualification, it is also about developing the skills and attributes needed to make it in the business world. Support and advice doesn't end when you gain your qualification, being a graduate or alumni member provides you with a many support services once you have left.
