A great pleasure to attend a guest lecture from our esteemed Visiting Professor, Norhayati Hashim, Head, Technology Research & CEO of @Petronas Research, talking about energy transition, decarbonisation and sustainability. @UniStrathclyde @StrathEng

Great please to welcome more than 40 colleagues to the CIRP UK Annual Meeting, which is being hosted by @strathdmem over the next two days in SUNNY Glasgow! https://t.co/ec0rsAVQ5H

Dear Friends, you can read the interview with PACWorld guru NF Chin, from Hong Kong, in the March 2025 of the PACWorld magazine.

A very interesting and engaging session. Lots of questions (and some answers). One certainty-there is a lot to do! Thanks @St_AInnovation for the invite.

Looking forward to attending and participating in the @IETevents DPSP conference in Hong Kong. https://t.co/rfcSfDjXo9

Great day hosting the @EPSRC Energy and Decarbonisation team (and other EPSRC colleagues) @UniStrathclyde @TIC_conferences to discuss our strategies, challenges (lots) and opportunities (lots). Hoping @UKLabour will support us in transforming our ideas into reality!

Not sure they were so happy at the end of my talk!

It was great to attend the @the_DARe_Hub advisory board meeting in London - there and back on the same day by train too :-) Lots of interesting stuff to do and many opportunities between our respective @EPSRC -supported projects, looking at the future of transport and energy.

A brilliant thread from @EngineerLondon

Interesting stuff. It’s going to be a huge challenge, but hope springs eternal.

Listening to a podcast with @Peston. Playing it at 1.5 speed and sounds just about right (still a wee bit slow). It’s good by the way 😃

⁦@EngineerLondon⁩ care to comment? It’s dark but I think OHLs must be insulated. Quad with all three phases plus earth bundled.

It was a great honour and pleasure to say a few introductory words at this event. Such exciting technology and a huge part of the solution in meeting our #netzero challenges. Thanks for the invite and I’m sure it will go very well! @EEEStrathclyde @StrathEng

She also mentioned how she is keen to seek funding for more PhDs, which is of course great news. However, actually recruiting the PhD candidates (in many Engineering disciplines) is a challenge that doesn’t seem to be receding.

Enjoying @EPSRC Exec Chair Charlotte Deane talking about strategy and objectives at @TIC_conferences. Discussing future-proofing our STEM workforce, building capability, ensuring we look to “tomorrow” and having amazing case studies to impress gov and public.

Serious question. What’s the value of a PhD in Engineering? Hardly any of our “home” students want to do one now. I know vibrant job market deters, but anything else? I don’t think I’d have done one if I was 21 and had just graduated now instead of (ahem) yeas ago…thoughts?

⁦@UKRI_News⁩ and ⁦@EPSRC⁩ ⁦@SPEnergyNetwork⁩ Ensign Prosperity Partnership project technical steering committee hard at work. ⁦@TIC_conferences⁩ ⁦@UniStrathclyde. Wish you were here ⁩ @AfiaTweeTwiddle⁩?

Enjoyed taking part in this. It’s not an easy thing to address…so many factors (and opinions). Certainly good to get it on the agenda. Check out @IGNITENetPlus for some great initiatives and events.
