Engineering Doctorate Centres
The Institute of Photonics currently supervises projects from three Engineering Doctorate Centres:
- Industrial Doctorate Centre in Optics and Photonics Technologies - is an innovative scheme where the student is based within a company while undertaking their training
- Centre for Doctoral Training in Medical Devices - providing engineers and physical scientists with full research training in medical devices and related technologies
- Centre for Doctoral Training in Diamond Science and Technology
