About the Institute

The Brahmal Institute seeks to create new collaborations and close links between experts in aeronautics, entrepreneurship, technology development, finance and policy making, and those working to bring about a circular economy to the aviation sector.

We will apply Imperial’s unique strengths in both computational and experimental research, supported by our world-leading fundamental science, to develop multidisciplinary programs tackling system-level challenges, such as the trade-offs in sustainable aircraft design and scenario modelling to optimise future sustainable aircraft operations.
