Facilities

Our core strength is the wide range of facilities and capabilities that are co-located and shared by a closely knit group of researchers.

Collaboration

We collaborate with a large number of local, national and international companies, through a range of different mechanisms ranging from sponsored studentships, seconded staff members, joint development programs, joint EU projects and directly sponsored research, to joint commercial ventures.

Collaboration with industry is an important aspect of the work we carry out. We understand that no two companies' needs are the same and hence are flexible when designing collaborative projects to ensure they maximise the benefits to both parties.

Get in contact

If you wish to collaborate with us or use our facilities please contact our Business Development Manager, Tony Corless:
