Overview
Intelligent monitoring and asset management
The Intelligent Monitoring and Asset Management Research Centre focuses on monitoring the condition of machines and systems; diagnosis and prognosis methods and novel asset management. The Centre’s research goals are to maximize systems availability, prevent un-planned shutdowns, optimize maintenance services, reduce overall operating costs and increase returns on investment.
Core areas of expertise include:
- Machine condition monitoring
- Machine fault diagnosis and prognosis
- Advanced signal processing for machine applications
- Machinery asset management
A member of staff, expert in the chosen field, is directly responsible for guiding and supporting your research programme. As a research student in the Production and Manufacturing Engineering at London South Bank University you'll become part of our thriving academic community.
A PhD, by definition, is an original contribution to knowledge. A research degree is different from a taught course. Research students are expected to self-direct their learning with support from a supervisory team.
Employability Service
At LSBU, we want to set you up for a successful career. During your studies – and for two years after you graduate – you’ll have access to our Employability Service, which includes:
- An online board where you can see a wide range of placements: part-time, full-time or voluntary. You can also drop in to see our Job Shop advisers, who are always available to help you take the next step in your search.
- Our Careers Gym offering group workshops on CVs, interview techniques and finding work experience, as well as regular presentations from employers across a range of sectors.
Our Student Enterprise team can also help you start your own business and develop valuable entrepreneurial skills.
