Explainable AI for Safety Critical Engineering Systems
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
The University of York is at the forefront of transformative research in data-centric engineering, digital twins, and AI. Our pioneering work is revolutionizing the design of complex systems by harnessing the power of data. Read more
Gender Issues in Road Safety for the Global South
This PhD research proposal aims to investigate gender issues in road safety in the Global South, focusing on women's mobility and safety. Read more
Assessment of the safety of deteriorated masonry structures
Composite materials (cement-based or polymeric-based) have been widely used for several decades for the construction or repair of the infrastructure or built environment. Read more
Enhancing the performance, condition, safety and reliability of offshore wind energy infrastructure systems using optimal inspections and structural health monitoring
These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
A Reliability based Design Method for Offshore Wind Turbine Tower Foundations
Foundations for offshore wind turbine towers can be grouped into two types. (a) Grounded systems and (b) Floating systems. Read more

This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] AI-Driven Robotics for Intelligent Construction: Optimising Human-Robot Collaboration through Digitalisation
Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are transforming the construction industry, addressing pressing challenges such as workforce shortages, safety risks, and productivity demands. Read more
Systems for effective and sustainable resource management at hospitals
Supervisory team. Prof Ian Williams, Prof Peter Shaw. Hospital waste management is an important environmental and public safety issue, due to the infectious, toxic or hazardous nature of the waste. Read more
S3.5-MAC-McLaggan - Development of novel bio-derived fire-safe composites with recycled polymers in the transport industries
The automotive and rail industries are transitioning towards more sustainable materials with a strong focus on natural fibre composites. Read more
Model-based Approach for Prognostics Health Management (PHM) for Fusion Reactors
Research Group:
Plasma and fusion science and technologies
The University of York is at the forefront of transformative research in data-centric engineering, digital twins, and AI, bringing about a revolution in the design and operation of systems. Read more
Fiber-Polymer Composites for Sustainable Structural Engineering
