From world-class research to real-world application

Join the centre and be part of the advanced materials revolution
Work on amazing materials, carry out cutting-edge research with world-leading academics and experience top-class training.

Composites are truly the materials of the future
Compared with conventional materials they can be stronger, lighter, cheaper; they can be used to create shape-changing structures for planes, boats and cars; they can display embedded functionality, or the ability to repair themselves. The potential applications of composites are endless.
