Our research
There are two available streams:
Stream One: Wide bandgap Power Electronics
Focus on the underpinning technologies for mobility applications and their connectivity to electrical power grids and networks through the emerging UK industry in Wide-Bandgap Power Electronics.
You will select modules from the School of Engineering and WMG Manufacturing MSc programmes as well as the bespoke modules below:
- Power Electronics fundamentals
- Wide-bandgap device design and integration
- Electrical transportation applications
- Systems and control
Stream Two: Connected and Autonomous Vehicles
Focuses on the deployment of advances in Connected and Autonomous vehicles to address a variety of national needs such as improving safety, energy efficiency, comfort and convenience.
Some of the areas of interest in this stream include but not restricted to the following topics:
I - Virtual/physical validation frameworks and CAV certification
II - Reliable on- and off-board information processing and communications systems
III - Cyber Security, trust and privacy aspects of CAV technologies
IV - Business models and ethical considerations
V - Human factors in designing autonomous driving systems
VI - Dependability of positioning, perception and control systems for CAVs
You will select modules from the School of Engineering and WMG Manufacturing MSc programmes as well as the bespoke modules below:
- Automotive sensors and sensor fusion
- Network and Comms for Connected Car
- Machine Intelligence and Data Science
