Research & Innovation
We’re tackling the grand challenges of our age by harnessing the powers of creativity, digital technology, cross-disciplinary collaboration and entrepreneurial activity.
Research at Falmouth is at the forefront of the fourth industrial revolution, where human-centred design, innovation and storytelling are fundamental to making digital technology both useful and meaningful. Responding to market demand and working hand-in-hand with industry, our research takes creativity beyond the creative sector into other high-growth markets including e-health and wellbeing, aerospace and agri-tech.
Our work delivers outputs with global impact. However, our approach is firmly rooted in the needs of our local community. Committed to championing and bolstering the Cornish economy, we’re mindful of how the region can provide an exceptional testbed for innovative research programmes.
