Welcome to the Research and Innovation Division (RID)
The University of Johannesburg has benefited from a large pool of researchers bringing together various fields of expertise and research focus areas. The University provides the ideal ground for interdisciplinary research and currently has almost 100 rated researchers. Five of these researchers are A-rated – all of whom are recognised as world leaders in their field. UJ is also home to nineteen research centres. UJ's goals include the intention to:
"Establish UJ among the top research universities in the country
in terms of nationally and internationally accepted research criteria.”
