The next Research Excellence Framework (REF) is currently being developed by Research England and the three Devolved higher education funding bodies, in collaboration with the higher education sector.
Since the funding bodies initial proposals for REF 2029 were issued in June 2023 plans for the REF have been amended in response to feedback from universities and other stakeholders. This development process will continue until final guidance is set in 2026.
