Materials Centre of Excellence

The CETIC Network of Wales

Centres of Excellence for Technology and Industrial Collaboration (CETIC) is a programme set up to help local, national and international companies benefit from industrially relevant knowledge, expertise and facilities in Welsh Universities. Seventeen centres have been accredited by the Welsh Assembly Government, based on research quality and track record of industrial collaboration. These centres are networked, so that if one is unable to help with an enquiry, the client can often be referred to someone who can.

The CETIC programme is managed by Marcia Jones of the Welsh Assembly Government's  Department of Economy and Transport. For further information on the programme please telephone 029 20368492 marcia.jones@wales.gsi.gov.uk
