Creative, Digital and Information Technology
UEL’s Creative, Digital and IT research topics cover a broad spectrum, including engineering, computing, architecture and social sciences.
A good deal of our research is geared towards better and safer communities, such as using ITsystems to predict a range of social needs. Our guiding principle is to understand how and why things happen, so we can work with decision makers to build a stronger infrastructure.
Recent research topics in this theme include:
- Software Engineering
- Financial Modelling
- Digital Archives
- Rehabilitation Technologies
- Performing Arts

Pandora Project
Virtual training for emergency situations
Human emotion is one of the most challenging elements in any emergency, but it is almost impossible to prepare crisis managers for how they will react when the worst happens.
This is where the ‘Pandora’ project comes in. Pandora is an advanced 3D virtual training environment that simulates the complexity and fast-moving nature of a real emergency in order to train crisis managers.
