We fund and deliver world class expertise across a wide range of engineering and technologies. These are essential to support our scientific research and to advance our facilities capabilities. The technology programme is strategically managed to meet the current demands of the science programme and encourages blue sky research to provide the tools to push the boundaries of science.

We support the development of innovative technologies in a number of key areas, including:

• Detectors and instrumentation
• Accelerators
• Computing and e-infrastructure
• Advanced engineering
• Optics
  

Our vision sets out our desire to maximise the impact of the technology we support. This impact is achieved through exploiting the scientific technology in areas of societal importance and the commercialisation of technology to the benefit of the UK economy.
