Teaching
Research students will be allocated two academic supervisors and the Faculty Research Degrees Board will monitor their progress. Students will be encouraged to participate in our research seminar series and in the University’s Graduate School and its graduate training programmes. We will support students in applying for funding to attend conferences, and to publish their work in conference proceedings and refereed journals.
The support students will receive should not only result in the attainment of a research degree, but also enable them to go on to develop a career as a professional engineer in a senior role.
