Agriforwards CDT

‘Agriforwards’ is the world's first EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Agri-Food Robotics.

Agriforwards CDT has been established by the University of Lincoln in collaboration with the University of Cambridge and University of East Anglia.

Agriforwards CDT provides a unique blend of technical expertise, outstanding research environment and, most important, integral industry collaboration in Agri-food Robotics. We work in collaboration with many organisations including the Dyson Foundation who are kindly providing PhD studentships for our students.

Agriforwards CDT recruited its last cohort and will not be recruiting any longer.

For general information about Agriforwards CDT please go to Agriforwards CDT - Lincoln.
