  1. Advanced Manufacturing Technologies

    AMT is a world-leading research group which has focused on manufacturing technology since the 1970s. Read more about our projects, facilities, how to contact us, the funding we receive and information on how AMTReL can help your business.

  2. Drone Technologies and Sensing

    The Drone Technologies and Sensing (DTS) research area combines some of the latest research from the General Engineering Research Institute (GERI) in the field of state-of-the-art drone technology, alongside well established research streams in optical measurement and sensing that have a long history of sustained research excellence.

  3. Applied Forensic Technology Research Group

    The Applied Forensic Technology Research (AFTeR) Group is interested in all aspects of the application of technology within the field of forensic work. A particular focus is on audio and video forensics.

  4. Microelectronics Group

    Researchers from the Microelectronics Research Group are investigating new technologies and materials. Members from the Group are also exploring ‘show-stoppers’ for optimizing digital/analogue circuits.

  5. Electric Machines and Drives Group

    The Electric Machines and Drives Research Group conducts research into: variable-speed electric drive systems, electrical power generation plants for renewable energy sources and power electronic converters for interfacing the variable-speed drives and generators.

  6. Galaxy formation and evolution

    The Galaxy Formation and Evolution Research Group looks at population studies of dwarf galaxies up to the most massive clusters of galaxies, supermassive black holes and detailed modelling of the internal structure of galaxies. Discover more about our expertise, who we work with and meet the researchers.

  7. Computational and theoretical galaxy formation

    The computational and theoretical galaxy formation group within the Astrophysics Research Institute uses state-of-the-art simulations on supercomputing facilities. Find out more about our research.

  8. Star formation and evolution and stellar populations

    By studying the gas and stars that shape the Milky Way as well as other galaxies in the local Universe, we can understand the life cycles of stars like our Sun, unravel the chemical enrichment history of the universe, and probe the existence of black holes across a wide mass spectrum.

  9. Astronomical Technology

    The Astronomical Technology Group is interested in optical and near-IR observations and the technology that facilitates them. Activities of the group include the operation of the robotic Liverpool Telescope and the development of its 4 metre successor.

  10. Cultural criminology

    Cultural criminology research within the Centre for the Study of Crime, Criminalisation and Social Exclusion.
