Careers

Excellent and diverse career paths are available for you. Well over one hundred EngD researchers have graduated to date with 97% progressing to relevant bioindustry careers. Many now hold distinguished and senior positions in the bio/pharmaceutical, chemical, cell therapy and personal care product sectors. The majority are engaged in bioprocess research and development, equipment and software design and manufacturing. Others have followed management and investment careers in the biotechnology field or have established independent academic careers in universities around the world.

Employability

An EngD in Bioprocess Engineering Leadership is ideal for science and engineering graduates who intend to work in the bioindustry sector, or who have yet to decide between an academic or industrial career. Research projects are created in collaboration with individual industry partners meaning that the results of each project have an immediate impact on real-world problems. Close connections with all of our industrial collaborators ensure that you are equipped with leading-edge skill sets that will enable you to tackle the next generation of bioprocess challenges, beyond the scope of your individual project.
