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 group brings together a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers to provide an integrated multi-scale approach to experimental product and process characterisation, process and systems modelling with a view to providing innovative manufacturing solutions. Smart and formulated products are complex systems pervasive across virtually all industrial sectors, including chemicals, healthcare, homecare, mining, food, hygiene, agricultural, automotive and energy industries. They represent a global economic market worth trillions of dollars. The large scale sustainable and efficient manufacture of such products with consistent quality is an area of significant interest to the high value manufacturing sector in the UK. This sector is characterised by a high rate of innovation in product lines, and short timescales for development. Manufacturing challenges include cost reduction, improved quality control, targeting novel function, higher productivity, waste reduction and lower energy utilisation.
