PhDs in Engineering Physics

PhD in Nanoscience DTC PhD (NoWNANO)

NOWNANO builds on the world-leading expertise in all nanoscience within Manchester and Lancaster universities to offer a broad interdisciplinary doctoral training centre (DTC). PhD students receive initial training that shows them the breadth and potential of nanoscience, before they focus on mastering one specific area of the subject. NOWNANO DTC offers many extra opportunities compared to traditional PhD, such as student conferences, joint events with other DTCs, innovation and commercialisation training, and outreach events. All these contribute to building a group of outstanding scientists that will help to lead world research in nanoscience in the future.

PhD in Engineering Doctorate/ Professional Doctorate in Digital Media

The Engineering Doctorate (EngD) at the Centre for Digital Entertainment (CDE) is a collaboration between the University of Bath and Bournemouth University. It offers the opportunity to conduct research in an industrial context. Industrial collaborators come from the fields of computer games, VFX, image processing, graphics and animation. The program lasts 4 years, of which 3 will be spent in a company engaged on research projects, one on Masters level courses.

PhD in PhD Studentship in Micro Air Vehicle “Flying with Vision”

A fully-funded studentship is available for a PhD on the topic of autonomous indoor flight of a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) using computer vision. The focus of the project is on the guidance, sensing and control aspects of the problem.

PhD in Offshore Renewable Energy (Engineering Doctorate)

The Universities of Edinburgh, Strathclyde and Exeter together with the Scottish Association for Marine Science and HR-Wallingford have formed a partnership to deliver the RCUK/ETI Industrial Doctorate Centre for Offshore Renewable Energy (IDCORE).

PhD in Science for Management of Rivers and Their Tidal Systems – SMART

The SMART Joint Doctorate focuses on the core areas of natural and engineering sciences relevant to the sustainable management of river systems from their headwaters to estuaries. SMART aims to provide education and research at PhD level by offering a 3-year programme in the framework of the Erasmus Mundus action.

PhD in Fusion Science and Engineering - Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate

FUSION-DC is a three-year Joint Doctoral Programme in nuclear fusion science and engineering offered by a consortium of 19 European partner institutions from 8 EU countries (8 full partners and 11 associated), the ITER Organization and 9 associated partners from China, Japan, Russia and the USA. FUSION-DC provides a sustainable, integrated and coordinated education at the doctoral level in the framework of a worldwide network of excellence in magnetic confinement fusion (MCF). The EU is world leader in the development of MCF as a sustainable energy source and FUSION-DC embraces most of the largest European fusion institutions. The FUSION-DC doctoral programme involves an attractive variety of educational and training activities (among which the yearly PhD summer event) and an unsurpassed diversity of research opportunities at the partner institutions and research facilities. FUSION-DC focuses on a number of research fields that address the major remaining challenges for making fusion energy a reality, w

PhD in Statistics PhD/MPhi

University of Birmingham

There are opportunities for postgraduate research in Statistics at both PhD and MPhil levels. Training is provided through individual supervision of research, by advanced seminar courses and conferences, and by generic courses.

PhD in Physics and Astronomy PhD/MPhil (Particle Physics Specialism)

University of Birmingham

The Particle Physics Group is involved in diverse present and future experiments at particle accelerators operating at the highest available energies, in order to determine the ultimate structure of matter and to study the fundamental forces of nature. We contribute to these experiments both through data analysis and through design and construction of detector and trigger components.

PhD in Electronic, Electrical and Computing Engineering PhD/MPhil (Electrical Power, Energy and Control Systems Specialism)

University of Birmingham

The research activities in electrical power, energy and control systems are closely linked to the interdisciplinary research of the Institute for Energy Research and Policy. The new Power and Control Research Laboratory is active in development and demonstration of new energy saving and energy efficient control technology. Our research is supported by the funding from EPSRC, BCURA, AWM, and the industrial partners.

PhD in Neutronics

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.
