Verification · 2027

Confirm and enrich the data behind your standing

Your standing is built from the open global research record. But no dataset is perfect, and you know your university better than any database does. During the verification window, through July and August, you can review the data and add the partnerships, consortia and funded projects that belong in your story.

What we incorporate

  • Corrections to institution identity and affiliated bodies.
  • Flagship partnerships and consortia not fully captured in the open record.
  • Funded projects and programmes, with evidence.
  • Your featured academics and public-page content (partners).
