Mr P Kinnell
Applications accepted all year round
Competition Funded PhD Project (European/UK Students Only)
About the Project
Faculty of Engineering – Division of Manufacturing
EPSRC Manufacturing Technology Engineering Doctorate Centre
The Manufacturing Technology Engineering Doctoral Centre is running an intensive four-year research programme in partnership with industry to address key challenges in advanced manufacturing engineering. It will prepare manufacturing experts for the future and enhance the competitiveness of UK industry by rapidly transforming the latest manufacturing research results into industrial technologies.
We are seeking applicants for an immediate start on a project with Taylor Hobson Ltd titled Advanced Stylus Manufacturing. The aim of this project is to develop a flexible yet robust manufacturing process for the fabrication of highly sensitive and complex measurement styli.
We are seeking candidates with:
• A sound general knowledge of manufacturing processes
• A creative approach to problem solving
• An understanding of mechanical design principles
• Knowledge of techniques for process development and optimisation
• Experience of using computer aided design (CAD) software
• Experience of using finite element analysis (FEA) software
• Good people and communication skills
• Good presentation skills
• Experience of working with industry will be an advantage
This is an excellent opportunity to work on an industry-based manufacturing technology research project, gain an Engineering Doctorate (EngD) and develop leadership skills in preparation for a high-impact, high-technology research career in industry.
The scholarship on offer (to eligible students) comprises a tax-free stipend of c£20,000 a year, tuition fees paid and a generous study package (research consumables and travel budget).
For further information or to apply, please go to our website: www.manufacturingedc.ac.uk.
