STREAM
Shaping careers, delivering innovation
The Industrial Doctorate Centre for the Water Sector
STREAM is the Industrial Doctoral Centre (IDC) for the Water Sector funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and companies who sponsor research projects.
STREAM Research Engineers and staff attending Challenge Week II earlier last year
The STREAM programme is delivered by five UK academic centres of excellence in water science and engineering in the UK. Coordinated by Cranfield University and including Imperial College London and the universities of Sheffield, Newcastle, and Exeter, the programme enables talented researchers to develop their skills and careers, while obtaining an Engineering Doctorate (EngD) degree.
An EngD is a four year research degree awarded for industrially relevant research, the degree provides a more vocationally oriented approach to obtaining a doctorate in engineering commensurate with that of a PhD.
If you are interested in sponsoring a research project or would like to apply for a place on the programme as a Research Engineer, please contact the STREAM office.
