Research facilities
Our modern university research facilities, archives, and buildings give you access to the best equipment to advance your research.
34 facilities
We have a dedicated temperature-controlled laboratory, with specialist equipment for understanding pain response.
Our multi-purpose research aquarium houses a variety of tanks and facilities for keeping and handling live specimens.
NNUF-EXACT is a centre for radiochemistry. We provide research and training in the accelerated nuclear characterisation and remediation technologies.
This is the smallest of our wind tunnels. Academic research and student projects are carried out here. It's also used for flow visualisation and to calibrate instrumentation.
The Tony Davies high voltage laboratory (TDHVL) is our centre for research into dielectric materials and insulation systems, as well as high voltage and related phenomena.
This is one of our larger wind tunnels. We use it for student research projects, wind engineering studies and marine industry work.
With a 1 way mirror and recording suite we use this lab to observe and investigate social interactions.
Using equipment like facial electromyography we explore the relationship between the mind and body to see how they interact.
Our human computer interface technology lets us mimic physical sensations. We explore the way humans combine vision and touch to work out shape and material properties.
Our eye tracking facilities can record human eye movement which helps us research language processing and visual threat detection.
This facility contains 5 engineering laboratories. It carries out research into improving and developing infrastructure.
This facility is for standard and advanced soil element testing, including rail track bed materials.
Our informatics services cover clinical trials management, form design, data integration, health research analysis and clinical innovation.
This facility tests structures, components and materials at a range of scales across a wide range of application areas.
We offer deposition technologies such as chemical vapour deposition systems, epitaxy and atomic layer deposition.
We investigate ways to create hydroelectric power using a range of small and large scale flumes and wave tanks.
We offer both e-beam and optical lithography and resist processing for fabrication and nanofabrication.
We explore the production of biofuels in our environmental biotechnology facilities. Equipment includes fermenters and downstream processors.
This regional and national centre for experimental mechanics research contains equipment capable of testing materials and structures across a range of scales.
We can carry out research using our water channel reactors and bioreactors up to production scale. Our facilities are located in Southampton and Spain.
This laboratory is home to more than 250 kinds of anaerobic digesters. We carry out research from lab study to commercial operating plant.
This facility supports a wide range of research and commercial activities across the maritime, aerospace, energy and transportation sectors.
Here we make novel thick-film sensors, actuators and systems printed using silk screen and inkjet printers.
This workshop is furnished with all the equipment needed to design and make scientific glassware for research and development.
