ternally and collaboration externally. Since its<br />
establishment, the UTC has developed a range<br />
of work-streams in thermal hydraulics, reactor<br />
physics and structural integrity.<br />
R-R UTC<br />
The key management roles in the UTC are:<br />
»»<br />
Director (Prof Fionn Dunne, Imperial).<br />
»»<br />
Deputy Director (Dr Mike Bluck,<br />
Imperial).<br />
»»<br />
UTC Coordinator (Dr Rob Harrison, Rolls-<br />
Royce).<br />
The UTC management structure has been developed<br />
to address short term, medium term and<br />
strategic issues. Monthly meetings are held<br />
between the UTC Coordinator and UTC Director<br />
and Deputy Director.<br />
Monitoring the progress of research themes<br />
(amongst other items) is undertaken by appropriate<br />
review at quarterly management meetings<br />
(QMM) of the UTC management group. In<br />
addition, PhD and EngD students give seminars<br />
at these meetings.<br />
The aim is for these to feed directly back to<br />
Roll-Royce to ensure that our activities match<br />
closely with the needs of the Rolls-Royce business<br />
units. Overall oversight is provided by the<br />
UTC steering committee which meets annually<br />
(usually coincident with the annual review).<br />
The last <strong>Annual</strong> Review took place in Derby in<br />
October 2015 and was combined with the sister<br />
UTC based at Manchester.<br />
AWE - CEMS<br />
The AWE Centre for Engineering and Manufacturing<br />
Studies (CEMS) Management Board<br />
meets every 6 months with Neil Alford, Bill Lee,<br />
and Emma Warriss attending for Imperial and<br />
the key AWE contacts being Neil Seagrave, Norman<br />
Godfrey and Daryl Landeg.<br />
NNL-Imperial College Alliance<br />
The NNL-Imperial College Alliance meets every<br />
four months to develop collaborative research<br />
and training programmes. From Imperial, Simon<br />
Walker is a NNL Senior Fellow and Laurence Williams<br />
a Senior Visiting Fellow, and NNL Alliance<br />
members included Andy Sherry, Mike Angus,<br />
Scott Owens, Richard Stainsby and Dominic<br />
