  • Our vision

    The Faculty of Engineering and Science uses the latest advances in science and technology to deliver novel, impactful and sustainable solutions to the key challenges now facing society. We deploy fundamental research to solve the world’s most urgent problems as part of applied, challenge-led collaborations with diverse partners.

    Our mission is to:

    • Develop strong partnerships with industry, policy-makers, NGOs and other academic institutions, while deploying innovative tools and approaches to maximise the impact of our research outputs.
    • Create and support a high-quality inclusive academic community, recruiting, mentoring and upskilling members at every stage of their career.
    • Provide multidisciplinary, evidence-based responses of the highest quality, arising from our rigorous specialised knowledge.

The breadth of the expertise across the faculty allows us to bring deep knowledge and insight to addressing challenges. I see real enthusiasm among staff from across the faculty to deliver change and impact.
