We train future research and innovation leaders across the multi-disciplinary themes of digital, physical and biological systems engineering.

Part of Engineering
Complex integrated systems arise across the engineering and physical sciences landscape and beyond. Our doctoral training will have real-world relevance supported by our numerous industrial partners from the defence and security sector.
I’m excited to work on projects and support students to benefit from the outstanding research track record, extensive facilities and linked project areas spanning many application domains. The centre covers a breadth of important research disciplines in which Southampton has wide-ranging expertise.
PROFESSOR OF STRUCTURAL MATERIALS
Studying with us will give you the tools to work across the sector, while also helping you to develop your own specialism. Our strong relationships with a range of large and small businesses, and industry leaders makes Southampton an exceptional place to undertake this type of research.
