Our Senior Lecturer in Materials Engineering, Dr Paul Bingham, was recently made a Fellow of the Society of Glass Technology

The ceramics theme, run by Drs Hywel Jones and Paul Bingham, aims to provide enhanced capability for the much needed delivery of ceramics and glass related consultancy, contract research and knowledge transfer projects (KTPs) by the University.

A spin-out business called XeraCarb created by Sheffield Hallam University to commercialise novel high performance and low cost ceramic materials is benefiting from significant new investment to take its technology into production

Three Sheffield Hallam University MERI PhD students, have begun working with the United States' Department of Energy on a project to help with the clean-up of a US nuclear plant undergoing decommissioning.

With significant expertise in materials characterisation methods we can solve industrial problems in a wide range of materials systems, using the state-of-the-art analysis techniques available in the Research Institute.

We deliver materials analysis services to all industries which have materials based needs. All services are provided by experts from within Sheffield Hallam University, using a range of state-of-the-art instruments and techniques

Sheffield Hallam University is offering this challenging and exciting PhD project in radioactive waste immobilisation and monitoring. This project is fully-funded by the UK's Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) and is supported by the National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL). The project is also supported by a consortium of leading UK Universities and nuclear industry partners, through the EPSRC TRANSCEND consortium, and the successful applicant will form part of a strong cohort at Sheffield Hallam University and also as part of TRANSCEND.

A new generation of durable sensors capable of monitoring commercial nuclear fusion reactors in real time is being developed by UK researchers
