Summary on Grant Application Form
This is an enabling investment that will underpin a significant proportion of Oxford's engineering and physical sciences research activity.

Supported research will fall into one or more of the following broad areas, depending on which combination of equipment bundles is selected for funding:

- Advanced Materials and Materials Engineering. The design and development of novel functional materials and of new components/devices based on these materials (including structural materials, quantum materials and superconducting materials).

- Energy and Transport. The development of novel energy storage materials/systems; new photovoltaic materials; more efficient engine technologies for the automotive and aerospace sectors.

- Development of novel physical science methods and analytical techniques and their application to challenges in the biological and medical sciences.
