Areas of Research

Sustainability

Sustainability is the heart of future developments in materials and technologies and the Sustainability research cluster underpins a variety of research areas particularly plastics, processing and energy. 

Electrochemical Engineering & Catalysis

The Electrochemical Engineering and Catalysis cluster is leading the charge in creating efficient and sustainable processes using innovative materials, techniques and technologies.

Adsorption & Porous Materials

The Adsorption and Porous Materials cluster deploys cutting-edge science and technology to address pressing challenges in adsorption processes, as well as the design, synthesis, characterisation and application of porous materials.

Particle Engineering

In the Particle Engineering Cluster, we lead the design of novel particulate products and sustainable manufacturing processes. We engineer innovative solutions for real-world challenges, from affordable medicines and food manufacturing to a wide range of nanostructured functional materials and cutting-edge biomedical devices.

Scholarship of Teaching and Learning

The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Research Cluster studies novel teaching and assessment practices, with the gathering and analysis of data to support curriculum changes.
