Following recommendations from Lloyd’s Register Foundation’s 2014 Foresight Review of Big Data, we co-founded the Data Centric Engineering Programme with The Alan Turing Institute, a multi-million-pound partnership helping ensure that the safety of people stays at the heart of advances in data-centric engineering.
The Data Centric Engineering programme has worked with some of the world’s leading academic institutions and over 30 major industrial partners from across the engineering sector, including NATS, Rolls-Royce and the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC).
Researchers from the programme have also produced papers in over 400 scientific publications, delivering and supporting more than 100 projects, and securing several international agreements, from Finland to Australia.
The programme is now focussed on accelerating the application of research in safety-critical domains, including:
- Digital manufacturing
- Critical infrastructure
- Marine and maritime
- Humanities, social sciences and arts

Data science and AI has enormous potential to help us solve some of society’s most pressing problems. This partnership will help us to make great progress, particularly in tackling problems related to environment and sustainability and we’re delighted to continue to work closely together in the coming years.
