Spectrum Research Centre CLG

Spectrum Research Centre (SRC) was established in 2017 to support young academics to bring their research into action. SRC was founded specifically at the request of local social and academic researchers and post-graduate students, who identified a local need to develop a space where research hypotheses and findings can be validated through local actions. At the outset, SRC aimed to support academics throughout their research activities; however, as the company has grown, the aim is now also to provide academics with opportunities to give their research a European perspective. The number of academics supporting the work of the company has now grown to 22 and the long-term objective is to establish a Centre for Educational Innovation where research findings can be put into practice.
