Postgraduate research

As a leading international research hub, our Department has a wealth of academic talent and advanced facilities whatever your doctoral interest is.

Our Department specialises in everything about the study of materials, and is split into key subject areas of materials science and fashion business and technology.

Whether your interests lie in hard science subjects such as biomaterials or metallurgy, or social science subjects such as consumer behaviour, marketing or business management, there are a range of study packages and funding options available to you.

Much of our research is multidisciplinary and industry-driven, meaning your research could have a significant impact on society and commerce - while setting yourself up for a future career.
