PhD project themes
Each year we receive funding from UK Research Councils, as well as other sources (e.g. industry sponsors). This funding is awarded to UK applicants with excellent academic profiles who are successful at interview (applicants must also meet RCUK criteria). Funded positions are advertised on our funding pages. We are also happy to accept applications from UK students who wish to apply for a Postgraduate Doctoral Loan.
The School welcomes international and EU applicants who are either self-funded or have secured funding from an external sponsor.
All applicants should expect to be interviewed by prospective supervisors.
