University of Portsmouth – School of Mechanical and Design Engineering

The everyday tools you use – the phone in your pocket, the train on your morning commute, the car you drive – each relies on ambitious and innovative engineers. At the School of Mechanical and Design Engineering, we’re helping solve societal problems through creative and practical engineering solutions, combined with technical academic knowledge.

Our engineers make a positive difference locally and globally through their work and research – from using artificial intelligence to improve powered wheelchairs, to creating more efficient solar panels and lightweight manufacturing materials.

We have an open and welcoming culture, with experienced and supportive lecturers and experts, and a focus on practical skills and employability. We’ve got a proven track record of producing sought after graduates – 92% of our previous students are in work or further study 15 months after graduation (HESA Graduate Outcomes Survey conducted in 2019).

University of Southampton – School of Engineering Sciences

The Advanced Composite Materials Facility is housed in a state-of-the-art laboratory within Chemistry at the University of Southampton. It incorporates thin film combinatorial synthetic chambers and high-throughput characterisation tools for the discovery and optimisation of solid state materials and devices. Surface analytical tools are available for understanding the interfaces of materials. A 150mm based cluster production tool is housed within the facility for the incorporation of the wider class of materials available using evaporation methods to be incorporated in thin film and micro-fabricated devices.
