AVL sponsored PhD opportunities

The CDT is a ‘hybrid think-and-do tank’ that brings together students from across the disciplines to work collaboratively as a cohort, combining depth and breadth of knowledge across the mobility ecosystem.

Industry collaboration is integral to our education and research programme and we are delighted to welcome AVL, who are co-sponsoring 13 PhDs in the CDT, to come and talk about their opportunities.

AVL is the world's largest independent company for the development, simulation and testing of powertrain systems, their integration into the vehicle as well as new fields like ADAS/AD and Data Intelligence.

The agenda for the event is:

Session 1
