MiNMaT benefits for both students and sponsors.
The Engineering Doctorate benefits both student and sponsor.
Over four years, the student will spend most of their time making a significant contribution to the research agenda of the industrial partner. The remainder of their time is spent at the University of Surrey, taking advanced technical courses and interacting with our experts. This ensures a constant flow of the most cutting-edge ideas back into your organisation.
