PhD studies

Interested in pursuing a PhD?

If you are interested in undertaking a PhD project, we encourage potential students to contact staff in their fields of interest.

The majority of students will follow a 3.5 year full-time route leading to the award of PhD. Studentships are generally funded by either the Science and Technology Facilities Council, or internally from our own research funds. We currently take in five to six new students per year.
