AAPS is here to train and support future leaders of mobility, bringing together industry, academics and students to pioneer and shape the transition to clean, sustainable, affordable movement for all. This is achieved through joint funding from EPSRC and University of Bath.
AAPS is a `hybrid think-and-do tank' designed to inspire industry, politicians and the general public to redefine the way we move.
The CDT is a supportive environment with an open mindset
Thinking to the far horizon
Working together across the social, technical and political landscape

Our students develop core personal and professional skills
Through the training programme our students gain a broad understanding of all disciplines influencing Propulsion systems
We aim to produce graduates with the depth of knowledge and breadth of skills to lead in addressing complex challenges in the UK automotive industry. Industry involvement during their PhDs enhances our students' training with relevant industrial problems, expertise and tools. Partnering with us gives you access to our high-quality research students and supervisors with diverse expertise.
