Research themes

Maximising our research activity is very important to us and most of it is highly interdisciplinary and collaborative. We do much of the work across our departments and enjoy forging links with external organisations and the University’s other faculties.

Our research activities are organised into three priority themes:

  • Energy and the Environment
  • Food and Health
  • Infrastructure and The Built Environment
