Institute of Process Research and Development
The Institute of Process Research and Development (iPRD) at the University of Leeds is comprised of experts from the field of chemistry and engineering, who work closely with the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries, to develop technology which can improve manufacturing processes and thereby impact on costs, quality, productivity, waste and energy.
iPRD is uniquely placed to conduct industrially relevant research at the vital Chemistry — Chemical Engineering interface and provides training facilities for process testing and scale-up as well as acting as a centre for both taught and research postgraduate study.
M.Sc. in Chemical Process Research & Development
Short Course: Chemistry for Engineers and Scientists - September 2012
iPRD is partly funded by a £4.85 million investment from the European Regional Development Fund and Yorkshire Forward, as part of Europe's support for the region's economic development through the 2007-2013 Yorkshire and Humber ERDF Programme.
IPOS, based at the University of Huddersfield, www.hud.ac.uk/ipos/ are strategic collaborators with iPRD, both jointly benefiting ERDF and Yorkshire Forward funding for development of infrastructure in the field of process and analytical chemistry enabling us to provide services to industry.
