Priority research areas

Engineering research and its outcomes are key in addressing the global challenges that affect us all.

We have aligned our expertise to reflect these critical issues through the establishment of five interdisciplinary priority research areas, enabling us to focus our expertise, target investment, build research capacity and collaborative teams, and develop the next generation of research leaders in the areas that need them most.

Our researchers are supported to work within, and across, our priority areas, as part of our commitment to ensuring an inclusive, open and collaborative environment.
