The University of Derby is supporting an advanced manufacturing project that has secured a £1.2m UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) grant.

Funding has been released for a project led by engineer Ayantika Mitra of Hampshire-based firm TISICS to transform advanced materials manufacturing through digital technologies. The four-year project, named ‘RAiSE: Radical Approaches in new materials Science and Engineering’, will develop tools to enable the rapid certification and qualification of new lightweight products for spacecraft and aircraft.
