A research degree from Edinburgh is your chance to connect with internationally renowned researchers and innovators and to experience one of Europe's leading universities in one of the world’s most iconic cities. We carry out world-class research and provide high quality training in research skills.

We ranked 1st in the UK for research power in Engineering in the UK-wide Research Excellence Framework exercise in 2014, as part of a joint submission with Heriot-Watt University. The exercise also classified our research as internationally excellent or world-leading. Our facilities, grant income, awards and prizes are rated as internationally excellent and more than 94% of our research papers are published in high-impact, world-leading scientific journals.

Our world-leading research is conducted through our Research Institutes. This enables us to span across and connect between our core disciplines of Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Civil & Environmental Engineering, and Electronics & Electrical Engineering.

Our seven research institutes are:

  • Institute of Bioengineering (IBioE)
  • Institute for Digital Communications (IDCOM)
  • Institute for Energy Systems (IES)
  • Institute for Infrastructure & the Environment (IIE)
  • Institute for Integrated Micro & Nano Systems (IMNS)
  • Institute for Materials and Processes (IMP)
  • Institute for Multiscale Thermofluids (IMT)
