Welcome to the AAPS Centre for Doctoral Training Hub

The Advanced Automotive Propulsion Systems Centre for Doctoral Training (AAPS CDT) is jointly funded by EPSRC and the University of Bath. The CDT is part of the Institute of Advanced Automotive Propulsion Systems (IAAPS).

It is a 4-year transdisciplinary research programme, that integrates a one-year MRes training programme with a three to four-year PhD. Giving students comprehensive training and detailed knowledge in their chosen subject area alongside colleagues working across a broad spectrum of challenges facing the industry.
