Cracking Crime Faster
A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) which looks at the forensic evidence and intelligence that are left at crime scenes by footwear, gloves, tyres and fingers. New Latent Image Markup and Analysis (LIMA) software provides a fast, accurate way of transmitting and...
Designing Infrastructure to Combat Disease
A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) archives looking at how viruses and bacteria also take advantage of manmade infrastructure to travel and spread. People are not the only things to hop on and off buses and trains. The University College London Healthy Infrastructure...
Empowering Children with Learning Difficulties
A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) archives looking at new technology which is helping children with disabilities take control of their conversations and share experiences with their family. The software system gathers information about a child’s experiences at school...
Engaging Maths
A resource from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) which explores the role of the mathematical sciences in our lives - in security, telecommunications and the internet, the environment, finance and economics, industry, transport and travel, and in medicine and biology.

Engineering in the New Curriculum
A 15 minute film, from the Centre for Science Education, showing the Engineering a Better World cross-curriculum model in action in a South Yorkshire school. The STEM teachers explain the benefits of the project which involves Design and Technology, Science and Mathematics. The video illustrates the stages of a...
F1 Challenge
F1 Challenge, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about engineering. Students build and modify a model F1 car based on ideas used for the F1 in Schools competitions. These ideas can be...
Fuelled by Air - a New Energy
A case study looking at a new type of rechargeable battery that could store five to ten times more energy than current batteries. The new type of battery is under investigation at the University of St Andrews with funding from the EPSRC. The new batteries would be made from cheaper materials and store more energy...
A collection of case studies produced by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) which show how engineering and science are helping to build the world around us. Impact! resources show how research into the sciences, engineering and technology is tranforming our lives, improving healthcare,...
