Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council
A set of resources from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the main UK government agency for funding research and training in engineering and the physical sciences, which invests every year in a broad range of subjects – from mathematics to materials science, and from information technology to structural engineering.
EPSRC operates to meet the needs of industry and society by working in partnership with universities to invest in people and scientific discovery and innovation. The knowledge and expertise gained maintains a technological leading edge, builds a strong economy and improves people's quality of life.
EPSRC's work is complementary to other research investors including other research councils, government agencies, industry and the European Union. EPSRC actively engages in and encourage partnerships and collaborations across disciplines, boundaries and the world.
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment.
Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date.
Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work.
