Join this internationally recognised research degree to become a future leader in translating scientific breakthroughs into real-world solutions for global health, food security and climate change. You will gain high-level research training, work with world-leading academics, and build the skills and networks for impactful careers in academia, industry, and beyond. Become an expert in the biotechnologies that are reshaping our society and improving outcomes across a diverse range of sectors, from healthcare and pharmaceuticals to sustainability. As a doctoral researcher working at UCL Biochemical Engineering’s dedicated Industrial Doctoral Training Centre, you’ll benefit from a wide range of research degree opportunities, many of which are funded by UKRI and the EPSRC. Our research centres are partnered with more than 80 different bioprocess companies and organisations, including Cytiva, AstraZeneca, 3M, Lonza, FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies, Lilly, Mitsubishi Chemical Group, and Unilever, among others. This allows our doctoral researchers to collaborate with leading bioindustry professionals to address strategically significant issues, often working as part of an international research team. With a strong emphasis on the translation of scientific advances through to commercial application, you’ll pursue your PhD projects in alignment with the following research areas: environment and sustainability, harnessing genomics, affordable therapeutic outcomes, the processing of complex biological materials, and improving the precision and rate of process development. This research degree is ideal for graduates in engineering, life sciences, or related disciplines who are passionate about interdisciplinary biochemical engineering research. If you are keen to tackle major global challenges, from healthcare and food security to sustainable bioprocessing and climate resilience, this programme will equip you to lead in both academic and industrial environments.
