Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2029 Code of Practice (CoP) documents Edge Hill University's (EHU's) decision-making processes for our REF 2029 submission. The REF is the UK’s system for assessing the excellence of research in UK higher education institutions (HEIs). This CoP is to help you as an EHU employee to understand the key issues and our decision-making processes for our REF 2029 submission. EHU’s REF 2029 CoP is particularly relevant to the following employees: those employed on academic ‘teaching and research’ (T&R) or ‘research-only’ (R-only) contracts and those who have produced eligible research outputs during their employment at EHU.
