The University of York was founded and continues to be a University for Public Good, carrying out world leading curiosity-driven research and its action oriented applications.
By building strong partnerships we can expand and share knowledge, generating local impact on a global scale. We can help identify and facilitate development of innovative, ambitious and sustainable solutions to your business challenges through knowledge exchange that cuts across disciplines. We are playing a key role in the development of BioYorkshire (alongside Askham Bryan College and FERA Science) and with our Green Chemistry Centre of Excellence, York Environmental Sustainability Institute and the Environmental Sustainability Academy at York we have the research expertise to help address your sustainable processing challenges. Beyond sustainability we can offer leading expertise in:
- Nanoscale materials analysis through our York JEOL Nanocentre
- A wide range of technology and expertise through our Bioscience Technology Facility
- Low-temperature plasmas for manufacturing and thin-films through the York Plasma Institute
- Robotics, autonomous systems and their applications through YorRobots
- Assuring robotics and autonomous systems through our Assuring Autonomy International Programme and recently opened Institute for Safe Autonomy
