This report documents the University's progress relative to the undertakings made in the Research Management Plan 1997-2000. The parameters of this report have been determined by the goals, objectives, implementation tasks and performance indicators set out in the Plan. The report's primary focus, however, is on documentation relative to the latter two of these - the specific implementation tasks and performance indicators set out in the Plan. In Part One, achievement reports for each of the 52 implementation tasks identified in the Plan are set out. They are ordered as in the Plan, cross-referenced to goals and objectives, and with notes indicating source documents which can be consulted for detail.
