From computational modelling, through to production and characterisation of nanomaterials, microsensors and large composite structures, we provide state of the art facilities and technical assistance to support our researchers in conducting world-leading research. Our facilities include a broad range of managed open-access equipment that include dedicated suites for advanced materials characterisation (including TEM), rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing, microelectronics, composites (3D-woven materials), general chemistry and both tissue engineering and microbiology laboratories. Over the past decade, Engineering research at Ulster has continued to grow both in terms of scale and quality. The 2021 Research Excellence Framework has judged that 100% of our research has outstanding or very considerable impact in terms of its reach and significance. An outstanding 94% of our research was judged as world-leading or internationally excellent, with 100% of our research environment described as being conducive to producing research of world-leading and internationally excellent quality.
