PhDs in Chemistry

PhD in Chemistry and Materials Technology (specialization in Chemistry and Materials Technology)

The PhD course in Chemistry and Materials Technology is aimed at studying chemical, physical or biological properties of materials with special focus on understanding the restrictive conditions within the phases of preparation, characterization, behaviour and the usable properties of inorganic and organic materials. The knowledge acquired will be further developed in the fields of technological processing and the optimization of the usable and protective properties of compounds, materials and products. In the course of their studies, PhD students will gain experience in creating concepts underlying experimental design including statistical data processing. They will learn in detail about the modern methods of exploring the structure and properties of materials and they will also acquire further knowledge about the practical applications of advanced technologies and programme products.

PhD in Chemical Sciences

The main objective of this Doctoral Programme is to equip doctoral students with any necessary ability for carrying out highly qualified research activities at universities, public bodies or private organizations. For this purpose, the doctoral students’ education is based on a regular experimental research activity and a proper specialist learning pathway within the various curricula, so as to develop any necessary expertise and skills to independently manage the research activity in an international exchange framework.

PhD in Max Planck PhD Program: Immunology, Epigenetics, Bioinformatics and Proteomics

IMPRS-MCB PhD program is organized by the Max-Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics and the University of Freiburg. Our scientists are publishing in the high impact factor journals and are internationally renowned experts in their fields. You will have a chance to regularly meet international speakers at the institute and at conferences.

PhD in Environmental Sciences

The Doctoral Programme in Environmental Sciences aims to combine the pursuit of solutions to global issues (environment, ecology and social development) and a new methodological philosophy improving young researchers’ scientific culture and skills.

PhD in Chemistry and Food Technology: Specialization: Food Technology

The degree course in Food Technology involves the sphere of food processing and production, including the use and development of knowledge of biological, chemical, engineering and economic scientific disciplines. Based on the acquired profound theoretical knowledge in the field of food production technology, chemistry and food analysis, biochemistry, microbiology and process engineering, graduates are qualified to independently carry out R&D results in the sphere of food technologies.

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 Chemistry and Materials Technology (specialization in Technology of Macromolecular Compounds)

The degree course is primarily aimed at independent research and development activities. PhD students are trained to apply practically theoretical knowledge of mathematics, physics and chemistry, general knowledge of technological processes as well as knowledge of computing and information technology. The above fields focus on the specific properties of polymeric materials including the latest knowledge about ecology. In the course of their studies, PhD students must prove their ability to solve complicated professional issues in an inventive way. They are also expected to present the outcomes of their research at international conferences and to publicise them in professional journals abroad.

PhD in Heterogenous Catalysis and Surface Science

Cardiff University

This programme offers knowledge and expertise for a career in research and managerial roles in manufacturing industry (e.g. food, cosmetics, petrochemical etc), in academia, in the pharmaceuticals and fine chemical sectors, teaching, biomedical research fields.

PhD in Modelling of Properties of New Micro- and Mesoporous Materials

Charles University

Zeolites and microporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) will be investigated computationally employing quantum chemical methods. In particular, methods based on density functional theory (DFT) will be used.

PhD in Ph.D. Position in Photosynthesis Biochemistry/Biophysics

VU University Amsterdam

The Faculty of Sciences performs research in the areas Life & Health, Networked World, Fundamentals of Science, and Energy & Sustainability. More than 1700 students participates in mono- and interdisciplinary bachelor and master courses.
