Infrastructure and the Environment (Research)

Infrastructure and environment research seeks to contribute to efficient, sustainable and resilient infrastructure in the built and natural environments.

Research in this area can focus on wide-reaching themes, such as:

• Environmental Engineering

• Fire Safety Engineering

• Granular and Geomechanical Processes

• Infrastructure Sensing and Systems

• Structural Engineering & Mechanics

• Sustainable and Digital Construction (SDC)

As a Masters by Research (MScR) student, you will spend the duration of this programme working on a research project. An MScR programme allows you to gain specialist knowledge in your research area, and is sometimes taken as a precursor to a PhD.

You will conduct your research as part of the Institute for Infrastructure and Environment (IIE), a group of researchers whose work seeks to contribute to efficient, sustainable and resilient infrastructure in the built and natural environments.
