Research
The Centre has adopted 14 research programme areas within which Olympic
research projects will be developed. The programme areas will build
on existing networks of national and international collaborators to
develop projects of academic and policy relevance with a distinct
focus.
COS&R's Research Approach
The priorities of COS&R in relation to the development of an
approach to research are as follows:
1. To identify and adopt research themes / programmes which are
of academic interest, and / or policy relevance for the Olympic
Movement, and to seek to promote research projects and publications
in these programme areas.
2. To develop an inclusive approach to developing research potential
in the Olympic area within the University and the UK context.
3. To develop opportunities for collaborating with internationally
renowned researchers in the field.
4. To strive to maintain standards of international excellence
in terms of the quality of research work undertaken and published
under the auspices of COS&R.
5. To seek to generate funds which will help to resource the research
activities and enhance the profile of the Centre and the School.
