The EPSRC’s Manufacturing the Future theme is highlighting a future call for a Sandpit in New Industrial Systems.
In response to future manufacturing challenges EPSRC is running a sandpit with a focus on New Industrial Systems to engender a radical change in the research undertaken in this field in the UK. EPSRC hope that this sandpit will enable UK researchers to identify and undertake research with the potential to have a transformative impact on our manufacturing industries.
It is expected that up to £5 million of EPSRC funding will be made available to fund research projects arising from this sandpit. Keep an eye on the their website if you wish to express an interest in attending the sandpit (EoI opens 5/1/17).
