Accessing core research facility equipment as an external client

Guidance for businesses and other external clients wishing to book time with the University of Bath's core research facility equipment.

We aim to make the process of accessing our facilities as straightforward as possible.

How to access our facilities for your business or organisation

  1. Contact our Research facilities team at research-facilities@bath.ac.uk with your enquiry.
  2. A member of our team will respond to confirm next steps, ask any clarifying questions and put you in contact with the relevant facility team experts to discuss your project.
  3. Once your project scope, timelines and costs have been confirmed, the Research facilities team will ask you to complete a short information form, and will send you copy of our standard contract terms. This step might take place alongside discussions with our facility teams, depending on the timescale of your project.
  4. A contract will then be raised, signed by our central contract team, and shared with you for signature.
  5. Once you have signed the contract, everything will be set for accessing our services.
