The Department's main objectives are to conduct internationally competitive research, and deliver high quality teaching.

Within each of our five research groups the faculty staff, together with their research associates and students, are working at an internationally competitive level. The outcomes of the research can be seen in many industrial and commercial applications as well as is high quality publications.

We are fortunate to enjoy the support of a wide variety of funding agencies and companies. We are most grateful for this support which from the smallest to the largest amount epitomises the variety and scope of the research work carried out. Research is vibrant and attracts around £3.5 million investment each year.

The Department maintains a strong commitment to teaching, both at undergraduate and higher degree level. Our popular undergraduate and taught postgraduate courses attract excellent students, and our graduates are sought by industry and commerce around the world.
