Postgraduate Research
Our research takes place predominantly within large, cohesive groups. These groups use state-of-the-art facilities and provide postgraduate students with unique opportunities to pursue a variety of topics. Many of these topics have a multidisciplinary flavour and are underpinned by strong industrial links which have resulted in successful spin-out companies.
For a full list of our PhD opportunities please visit our Research Programmes page.
