Our research activities cover fundamental investigations to applied research. Many of these activities are in conjunction with industry and other universities. Join a department with a strong ethos to proactively better the world through taking mechanical engineering research and development to the next level. Our research activities cover fundamental investigations to applied research, and are often carried out collaboratively with industry and other universities. Your PhD can be in any of the areas of research covered by our research centres: - Centre for Bioengineering & Biomedical Technologies - Centre for Climate Adaptation & Environment Research (CAER) - Centre for Digital, Manufacturing & Design (DMADE) - Centre for Integrated Materials, Processes & Structures (IMPS) - Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems (SES) - Institute for Propulsion & Mobility (IPM) You will start this programme in October. You may also start mid-year, subject to agreement with your supervisor and the Doctoral College. Programme content Learning - Doctoral skills online - Doctoral skills workshop - Research project - Supervisory team Research content Successful applicants are welcomed very much as junior academic colleagues rather than students, and are expected to play a full and professional role in contributing to the Department’s objective of international academic excellence. In many cases postgraduate projects are linked to industrial companies and are often carried out in collaboration with other departments within the University and other institutions. Postgraduates thus have the opportunity to work on interdisciplinary projects with a strong industrial relevance as well as on more fundamental engineering topics. The dissemination of research findings is seen as a vital component of the research process and graduate students are encouraged to prepare papers for publication as part of their research training. Professional Development Professional development is a crucial element of doctoral study, not only in supporting your research but also as part of your longer term career development. Our DoctoralSkills workshops and courses will help you build your skills and help you succeed in your doctorate.
