By choosing to do your postgraduate study with the Composites UTC, you will not only benefit from research expertise and innovative technology development at the highest level, you will also have the opportunity to participate in industrially led research. We provide our postgraduate students with industry exposure and opportunities for professional development in addition to studying in cutting-edge research areas. There are also opportunities to study with us through the Centre for Doctoral Training. As a member of the Composites UTC you will also join the welcoming and enthusiastic Bristol Composites Institute community.

My 4 years within the UTC as a Rolls-Royce sponsored EngD student have been fundamental to my professional development. I worked on maturing composite technologies that aimed to provide solutions to real-world challenges facing the aerospace sector; specifically developing novel, high-temperature polymer composites. Exposure to many aspects of the aerospace industry broadened my skill set and industrial experience. My research's impact within Rolls-Royce, facilitated through my UTC membership, is undoubtedly the reason I am now a Composite Materials Engineer at Rolls-Royce Electrical.
