The University of the West of England, Faculty of Computing Engineering and Mathematical Sciences (also known as UWE CEMS is a faculty of the UWE Wiki.

UWE CEMS is a member of the Association of Aerospace Universities,^[1] and provides both under graduate and post graduate education.^[2]

The faculty has a mission to engage in research which is of direct relevance to industry, society and the environment. Research in the Faculty covers a wide range of subjects within the fields of mechanical, manufacturing and electrical engineering, computer science and computer systems, information systems and mathematics, statistics and operational research. Projects take place at local, national and international levels, enabled by the size and disciplinary diversity of the Faculty. Collabrative partners and sponsors include the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the Department of Trade and Industry, and the European Union.

Much of the research is carried out in the faculty takes place in recognised Research Centres of which the Faculty currently has seven. In addition research is also carried out by more informal research groups and by individual researchers in the five faculty schools:

Aerospace Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) - AMRC
Centre for Complex Cooperative Systems (CCCS)
Centre for Innovative Manufacture & Machine Vision System (CIMMS)
Community Information Systems Centre (CISC)
Engineering and Medicine Elastomers Research Centre (EMER)
Intelligent Autonomous Systems Laboratory (IAS)
Aerospace Strategy Research Centre (ARC)

Research is also conducted into speech and language therapy in the Speech and Language Therapy Research Unit based at the Frenchay Hospital. The mission of this Unit is to improve the care and treatment of people with speech and language disorders by developing knowledge related to the prevention, treatment and social consequences of communication.
