Research Group: Design, Manufacture and Materials
Best practice for new materials, products and processes.
We focus on the design, development, analysis and testing of novel materials, structures and processes. Our scientific foundation is in:
- additive manufacture and biofabrication
- materials modelling
- precision engineering
- micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS)
We work with industry to carry out much of our research. The main application areas are:
- mechanical power transmission
- medical devices
- tissue engineering
- microsensors and microsystems
Teaching
Taught Programmes
From day one, our Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Programmes give students a path to become a professional engineer addressing major global challenges.
Our Postgraduate Taught (MSc) Programmes equip students with the advanced skills and expertise to help shape the world.
In addition, group members collaborate with the Medical School to offer the one year Masters by Research (MRes) degree in Biofabrication and Bioprinting.
