Projects per year
Organisation profile
Organisation profile
We carry out basic and applied research at the frontiers of engineering and science. Our work includes strong interdisciplinary connections to basic science and mathematics. Our research is funded by UK research councils, the EU and industry.
Research centres
Academics in the Department are also core members of the following Research Centres:
- Centre for Biosensors, Bioelectronics and Biodevices (C3Bio)
- Centre for Autonomous Robotics (CENTAUR)
Research environment
Our academic staff, research fellows, post-doctoral researchers and postgraduate students carry out internationally significant work and publish in a number of journals.
Because our teaching is research-led, undergraduates learn about the latest findings. Many of them also have the chance to work with our research centres.
Research impact
91% of our research activity was graded as either world-leading or internationally excellent in the Research Excellence Framework 2014. We carry out research that finds solutions to real-world problems.Read more about our research impact »
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
