Course summary

To complete a postgraduate research programme, you’ll need to be dedicated and passionate about your area of study. But it’ll be well worth it. Being a doctoral student is challenging, yet incredibly rewarding. You are expected to carry out a programme of research in a particular area under the supervision of a primary supervisor and one or more co-supervisors. A PhD is the most internationally recognised research qualification, and is the most commonly pursued research degree at Leeds. Typically, throughout your PhD you will undertake research in different stages across years one, two and three. However, your research degree may be longer depending on the project you have chosen.Our research at the University of Leeds has an excellent and recognised track record in development and application of process tomography. In the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021, 97% of the research activity submitted to the Engineering Unit of Assessment (UoA12), which includes Chemical and Process Engineering, were assessed as ''world-leading'' or ''internationally excellent''. Process tomography has been recognised as an advanced and effective visualisation and measurement technology for current and future manufacture. Particularly, it is replacing gamma-ray attenuation based densitometer in industry and applying to national/EU flow laboratories as a standard multiphase flow visualisation technology for future metrology, which was assessed by European Metrology Association.
