The Bragg Centre aims to discover, create and design new materials. We bring together scientists and engineers across a wide range of disciplines, pursuing both fundamental and applied research. We provide world-leading experimental and analytical facilities to understand and build materials from the atomic to the macro-scale.
<p>Researchers in the <a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research">Bragg Centre</a> work with industry and other partners to develop new insights and solutions for innovative products, devices and applications. </p> <p>We are a founding partner of the Henry Royce Institute, the UK’s centre for advanced materials research and innovation. </p> <p>Our research themes are:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes">Analytical science</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes/2">Bionanotechnology</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes/3">Electronic and photonic materials</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes/4">Functional surfaces</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes/5">Multiscale materials</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/info/130565/bragg_centre_for_materials_research/684/bragg_centre_research_themes/6">Soft matter</a></li> </ul> <h3>Leeds Doctoral College</h3> <p>Our <a href="https://www.leeds.ac.uk/research-leeds-doctoral-college">Doctoral College</a> supports you throughout your postgraduate research journey.
