Project Partners - Working together for the future of Ultra Precision Engineering
The Centre for Doctoral Training in Ultra Precision Engineering relies on extensive support from industrial and government partners. These partners contribute highly to the MRes projects and PhD years of selected students. The CDT-UP will be hosting a workshop in January 2018 to look at the next generation of Ultra Precision Technologies, to register your interest to attend this event please email Sophie Fuller.
See further information on our project partners here.
Cranfield MRes Research Projects
The Cranfield MRes students are offered a number of individual projects from supervisors who are willing to support these projects. The projects began in October and are completed in September. The project topics are spread across the field Ultra Precision engineering. Some time, the research project is spent at the sponsor location.

Cambridge MRes Long Projects
The Cambridge MRes students have now begun their long projects hosted by a number of Cambridge supervisors across the university departments. These projects are all based around the topic of Ultra Precision Engineering but throughout a wide variety of subject areas. Many students are collaborating with our current project partners and future partners on these projects, with a number of these projects going forward to the PhD stage.
