Strategic Teaching Fellow in Design Engineering
Dr. Freddie Page serves as the Strategic Teaching Fellow in the Dyson School of Design Engineering at Imperial College London. He earned his MPhys from the University of Oxford in 2011 and completed his PhD in theoretical nanophotonics at Imperial College London in 2016. His research focuses on designing materials capable of slowing light to a complete stop and exploring the interactions of light with sheets of graphene far from thermal equilibrium.
Professor David Dye: Expert in Alloy Development and Materials Science
David Dye is a Professor of Metallurgy in the Department of Materials, specializing in the development of alloys for jet engines, nuclear applications, and caloric materials aimed at reducing fuel consumption and preventing in-service failures. His work involves advanced crystallography, utilizing techniques such as neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy at the atomic scale. The large datasets generated by these techniques present complex data analysis challenges. David earned his PhD and undergraduate degrees from Cambridge University in 1997 and 2000, respectively, and joined Imperial College London in 2003. He also teaches introductory mathematics, with a focus on errors and data analysis, and has been recognized with student-led awards for his innovative teaching methods.
