Dr Stuart Grey
I teach aerospace engineering at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow and run Student Voice, a class evaluation platform focussed on improving teaching through improved communication. My research involves precise orbit determination and force modelling of spacecraft and space debris as well as applying machine learning techniques to help improve teaching.
I also give public lectures and run a number of public engagement activites centred around 3D printing and space debris for those who are traditionally under-represented in engineering.

A History of Space Debris - Public Lecture at the Wolf Humanities Center at the University of Pennsylvania
The space race and more recent commercial space activities have led to a proliferation of objects in Earth’s orbit. What exactly are these objects? How do they behave? Who are we leaving them for? Is it junk or can it be reclaimed? Dr. Stuart Grey considers our role in polluting space and how this circulation of material impacts the future.

Young Weir-Wise 2019
Discovering Engineering with S2 Girls. It was time again to run 2 sessions as part of the Young Weir-WISE outreach activity at Strathlcylde. This time we focussed on 3 key areas in the future use of space, 1. Global space based internet, 2. Orbital/sub-orbital transport and 3. Global real-time satellite video. Jan 29, 2019
Strathclyde Headstart 2018
In the last of the 3 outreach events we've run this summer we had 40 students from the Headstart scheme run by the Engineering Development Trust. Overall i've had a fantastic few weeks meeting over 240 young people interested in engineering and can't wait to see what they get up to.
