SPEERI is an independent partnership of 14 Scottish universities, and has been engaged in world-class engineering research and innovation since 2016 - first under the Scottish Research Partnership in Engineering (SRPe) and now as the integrated organisation of SPEERI.

SPEERI drives collaboration between universities, industry and public sector to deliver unparalleled R&I capability across a range of engineering technologies.

Our strategic themes and priorities are driven by the potential for socio-economic impact based on industry needs, national-level economic growth opportunities and challenges for society today and in the future.

  • Advanced Manufacturing

  • Engineering for Health & Care

  • Infrastructure & Environment

  • Robotics & Autonomous Systems

The academics that work collaboratively under each theme are a national strategic research resource that provides expertise to government and industry, as well as to the wider UK and international research communities.
