PhDs in Climate Studies & Meteorology

PhD in Science and Management of Climate Change

The PhD Programme in Science an Management of Climate Change aims at training experts with a broad, in-depth, scientific and socio-economic background, as well as with a sound and innovative research experience focusing on the dynamics of climate change and the methodologies and techniques for evaluation and management, in terms of mitigation and adaptation measures and policies.

PhD in Environmental and Atmospheric Sciences

The Cyprus Institute

The program will educate students on the significant issues in environmental and atmospheric sciences, particularly with regard to global changes and their impacts.

PhD in Geographical Sciences (Physical Geography) (PhD)

University of Bristol

The School of Geographical Sciences is one of the world's leading international centres for research and educational scholarship. The Graduate School is integral to this success. We have a large and vibrant graduate community, focussing both on PhDs by research and on taught programmes.

PhD in Nuclear and Isotopic Metrology

CEA/INSTN

As a part of the CEA (French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission), the National Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology (INSTN) is a higher education institution under the joint supervision of the Ministries in charge of higher Education and Industry.

PhD in Geodynamics

Cardiff University

This programee aims to offer knowledge and expertise for a career in academia, the hydrocarbon industries, government surveys and analytical geochemistry.

PhD in Sustainability

Newcastle University

We can supervise PhD projects in topics across our main areas of research, which are: marine, terrestrial, water, energy, transport, food, products and processes, health and environment, justice and governance, and urban and rural economy. Depending on your chosen topic, your research may include industrial placements or time at other universities in Europe or other continents.

PhD in Geobiology (including Geomicrobiology and Palaeobiology)

Cardiff University

This programme aims to offer knowledge and expertise for a career in academia as a researcher/lecturer, in museums, industry, and the wider geological workplace including environmental consultancy and the hydrocarbon industry.

PhD in Geoenvironment

Cardiff University

This course aims to offer knowledge and expertise for a career in academic research, environmental consultancy and environmental management and policy making.

PhD in Sustainability Science, Policy and Practice (SSPP)

Maastricht University

The interdisciplinary Ph.D. programme in Sustainability Science, Policy and Practice (SSPP) is designed to educate researchers, university teachers, and world leaders in the social, economic and natural science disciplines that underpin sustainable development. Sustainability science is a new multi-disciplinary approach to science that recognizes the limitations of traditional scientific inquiry in dealing with the complex reality of social institutions interacting with natural phenomena.

PhD in Climate Modelling

CEA/INSTN

As a part of the CEA (French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission), the National Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology (INSTN) is a higher education institution under the joint supervision of the Ministries in charge of higher Education and Industry.

PhD in Paleoclimate Research (including Climate Change)

Cardiff University

This programme aims to offer knowledge and expertise in marine science industries, academic research or environmental science.

PhD in From Regional to Local Climate Adaptation - the Decisive Role of Local Agents

University of Kassel

Adaptation to the climate change challenge on a regional scale needs action both on regional and local levels. As a main hindrance lacks in actor-specific communication reduce the speed of behavioural changes and the implementation of measures. There is a need for convincing arguments to change behaviour on different scales and institutional as well as daily life surroundings. Often different perspectives of social groups on their vulnerability are not very clear or neglected. Thus, agents (in terms of principal-agent-theory) should be focussed as local actors because their behaviour and decisions on specific adaptation measures are crucial levels of change.
