The University of Deusto is a dynamic institution committed to the promotion of research excellence, with the internationalisation of research at the core of its strategic plan. Our innovative 6 ‘I’s model focuses on the expanding critical role of universities as social innovators and proposes ways to shape performance through principles of collaboration (internationalisation, interdisciplinarity and intersectorality) and action (impact, innovation and inclusion). The researchers pool of over 500 academics, 36 research teams (24 of them with external recognition by the Basque Government), 9 prestigious research centres, and 5 International Interdisciplinary Research Platforms embodies DEUSTO into a fertile research ecosystem. DEUSTO’s long trajectory leading and participating in around 100 international projects (funded by different programmes from FP6 to Horizon Europe, UK Research Councils, USA Foundations,...) has grounded the institution firmly on the international research arena.
