Addressing the Major Questions of our Age
Humankind is facing a greater number of challenges than at any other time in its history. Issues such as health, technology and communications, climate change and population growth present problems that, if left unchecked, threaten the sustainability of our civilisation.
If society is to effectively address these issues, future research activity must adopt a more fluid and cross-disciplinary framework, free from the traditional subject and structural barriers. In recognition of this, Brunel has established four Collaborative Research Networks to address the major, multidisciplinary research challenges of the future.
