OPSITARA Research
One of the facilities which we provide to support staff and student research is our EPICentre. EPICentre is a workshop studio equipped with a range of machine and hand tools. Two technicians, Ken Wyber and William Early, are available to educate and supervise students and staff from many different disciplines to use equipment safely for their creative and applied research projects. This month's magazine includes Alesha Pyers' moving story; we're proud that her earrings were developed in our EPICentre.
