Micro- and NanoMaterials andamp; Technologies The primary aims of the Engineering Doctorate in Micro- and NanoMaterials and Technologies are to exploit the potential of this new technology in industrial applications, and to give you the research experience to enable you to acquire the scientific, business and personal skills necessary to make a significant contribution to industry.

Profile: 

Profile Lucy Wright enrolled on the EngD programme after graduating with a degree in Physics. 'I had always been interested in environmental issues, but didn’t think that I was qualified to go straight into a job,' says Lucy. 'I didn’t want to do a straight PhD and was looking at other possibilities when I came across the EngD. It seemed the ideal solution'. After graduating in 1999 she is now working for her EngD Sponsor, Nokia Mobile Phones, in Camberley. In the mobile phone sector, environmental management has traditionally focused solely on operations and manufacturing. As disposal and recycling become the responsibility of the manufacturer, the products must be designed appropriately. There are now moves within the industry to encompass the whole of the product’s lifecycle and several manufacturers are involved in ‘take back’ projects. 'My role is to provide the infrastructure that will help drive mobile phone life-cycle management.'
