At Wrexham University, we are dedicated to promoting an inclusive and interdisciplinary research culture that enhances capacity and achieves excellent outcomes, while supporting a diverse community of researchers. Through collaborative projects, joint funding bids, and impactful partnerships with academia, industry, and communities, we aim to drive innovation and commercialisation that transforms society.

We are proud to offer a comprehensive internal funding programme to further support the development of our researchers and their ideas. Our 2025-26 Internal Funding Programme introduces 13 different funding streams to provide financial resources and support for staff, research teams, and postgraduate research students.

It is essential to accurately cost and budget your project. Please contact Bid Development Managers Emma Taylor and Rachel Lacey for assistance with the costing and application process. Note that different grant calls have varying eligibility criteria, open and close dates, application forms, and reporting procedures.
