PhD research
We offer a broad range of cross-cutting PhD research projects that are relevant to addressing global challenges in the 21st century. Our research topics span energy, digitalisation, process engineering, sustainable industrial system design, food systems, bioprocessing and batteries. Our research projects are supervised by a team of experienced, world-class academics. We are specialising in both computational modelling and experimental based research, and have strong links with the industry.
Feel free to get in touch with your prospective supervisor(s) to find out more about the project(s).
