Being a doctoral student is challenging, yet incredibly rewarding. The aim of the Neville Centre is to facilitate solutions for both industry and academia in the area of cement and concrete design engineering. The Centre will focus on developing the links between current material experts working at the nano- and micro-structure scale and those working on long-term macroscale design performance, with the aim of enhancing both traditional and innovation-led design. The Centre will maximise industrial involvement and ensure a productive dialogue between fundamental research and practical application.
