Join Our Team
We are always looking for motivated and curious researchers who are passionate about human-centred AI, digital twins, and intelligent manufacturing systems. Joining the Human-Centred Industrial Intelligence Lab (HCI²) means working on cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research at the intersection of AI, human–robot collaboration, robotics, and industrial engineering, with a strong emphasis on real-world industrial impact. Our work is closely aligned with Industry 5.0, focusing on human-centric, sustainable, and adaptive production systems.
Prospective PhD candidates are encouraged to develop research proposals aligned with one or more of the following programme research areas. These themes reflect the lab’s focus on human-centred, AI-enabled industrial intelligence and are typically explored through interdisciplinary, industry-engaged research.
MSc dissertation topics are available for students interested in applying AI, digital twins, and human-centred design methods to manufacturing and industrial systems. Projects are supervised by academic staff and are designed to be achievable within the MSc dissertation timeframe.
Final year project topics are available for undergraduate students interested in applying AI, robotics, and human-centred approaches to real-world industrial problems. Projects are structured, supervised and aligned with the lab’s ongoing research activities.
