Dr Marjanovic is primarily focused on the applications of control theory to industrial problems. Applications include control, monitoring and optimisation solutions for processes found in the following industry sectors:

• Pharmaceutical
• Fine/specialty chemicals
• Power generation and transmission
• Wastewater treatment

Areas of control theory and application that are currently researched by Dr Marjanovic include:

• Optimal control of batch processes
• Model predictive control
• Optimisation techniques
• Statistical analysis of spectral imaging data
• Multivariate Statistical Process Control (fault detection and diagnosis using statistical methods)
• Modelling of industrial processes (first-principle and data-driven modelling techniques)
