The West London Institute of Technology (WLIoT) has launched its new Research Hub, now live on the WLIoT website.
WLIoT, led by Harrow, Richmond and Uxbridge Colleges, is part of a select national network of 21 Institutes of Technology across England, created to deliver high-quality technical education and strengthen collaboration between education and industry. HRUC was one of the first further education providers to be awarded Institute of Technology status in August 2019, helping position WLIoT as a leader in higher technical education.
The launch of the Research Hub marks an exciting step forward, creating a dedicated space to showcase staff expertise, student innovation and emerging research across STEM disciplines.
