NSIRC PhD Students to Showcase Industry-Focused Research at Annual Gathering of TWI Industrial Members

PhD students from the National Structural Integrity Research Centre (NSIRC) are set to present their industry-focused research at the TWI Core Research Programme (CRP) Symposium, taking place at TWI's headquarters in Cambridge.

The TWI CRP Symposium is tailored to address the pressing needs of TWI's Industrial Member companies. The selected projects, including PhD topics, are strategically aligned to tackle the most significant challenges faced by TWI and its Industrial Members. These projects are focused on engineering, materials, or manufacturing technologies, directly impacting specific technology areas and industry sectors critical to future operations.

Exclusively designed for TWI Industrial Members, the Symposium offers a unique opportunity to engage with the PhD students conducting cutting-edge research at TWI. It serves as a platform for students to interact with technology experts from a wide range of industries, enabling them to gain valuable insights and feedback for the advancement of their research topics.

The event will feature posters on a diverse range of topics that respond to urgent calls for research by the TWI CRP.
