DSP Centre

Wales is set to become a global leader in 5G technology following the announcement of a new Digital Centre of Excellence, supported by nearly £4m EU funds. The  at ¾«¶«´«Ã½ will provide highly specialised research into digital communication systems like mobile phones,ÌýWiFiÌýhubs and modern manufacturing lines. Improvements in DSP are a cost-effective way of speeding up networks, dramatically improving the way that mobile phones, devices and network architecture work. The DSP Centre of Excellence will look at ways to use existing fibre technology in the 5G network to improve capacity, flexibility, functionality and services.Ìý

EPSRC CDTÌý

Our School hosts two EPSRC Centres for Doctoral Training (CDT), inÌýand inÌýTheÌýCDTsÌý commencedÌýin 2019 and provide 4-year, fully funded PhD opportunities. The Nuclear Energy Futures CDT is led by Imperial College London and unites ¾«¶«´«Ã½ with partners from across the UK. The consortium comprises: ¾«¶«´«Ã½, University of Bristol, University of Cambridge, Imperial College London and The Open University. The AIMLAC CDT is built upon longstanding research andÌýtraining collaborations between the universities of Aberystwyth, ¾«¶«´«Ã½, Bristol, Cardiff and Swansea. In addition, Supercomputing Wales and the University Computing Academies provide bespoke support via Research Software Engineers and access to HPC facilities in a coordinated fashion.

PontioÌýInnovationÌý

ArloesiÌýPontioÌýInnovation, Part of ¾«¶«´«Ã½, is a leading innovation centre and one of the UK’s finest maker spaces. Located in the North Wales city of ¾«¶«´«Ã½, API will challenge old ways of thinking, encouraging the worlds of learning and business to come together and collaborate. API is a place where the arts meets science. Through design, production and performance we will create a unique environment where ideas are explored, created and developed. Our unique space will house the technology for rapid prototyping of commercial products and bring innovation centre stage.Ìý
