Professor S J Culley BSc(Eng), CEng, MIMechE
Head of Design, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Bath University
Professor Steve Culley is Head of Design in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Bath University. He has researched in the engineering design field for many years. In particular this has included the provision of information and knowledge to support engineering designers. He pioneered work into the introduction and use of the electronic catalogue for standard engineering components and has extended this work to deal with systems and assemblies He has over 150 publications and has recently co-authored a book on design and changeover. He is a member of the EPSRC funded Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre(IMRC) at Bath University, where he leads the Design Information and Knowledge(DIAK) theme. He is also a member of the Executive Committee and Work Package Leader on the recently awarded ‘Grand Challenge’ - Immortal Information and Through-life Knowledge Management. He is a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers.
