1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Summary of PhD Program:
Implantable medical devices (IMDs) are gaining popularity in the health and medical sectors because of their vast applications, such as cardiac pacemakers, artificial hearts, defibrillators, coronary stents, intraocular lenses, hip implants, orthopaedic implants, and implantable glucose sensors. Traditionally, these IMDs are battery-dependent with limited life span hence surgery is required to replace the battery, which is the biggest source of distress in patients. A wireless power transfer (WPT) system can prove to be an excellent alternative that acts as a wireless charger to the medical implants.
Application Deadline: 3 September 2024
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Physics or Materials Engineering
Summary of PhD Program:
This studentship will also be part of an exciting new Doctoral Training Initiative called UK Semiconductor Industry Future Skills or UK-SIFS for short. UK-SIFS will create a vibrant, multi-disciplinary cohort experience for all our students and provide highly practical training of substantial value to those interested in careers in the semiconductor and related sectors such as optoelectronics and clean energy. You will also have a chance to work with a large range of industrial partners such as NSG Pilkington, who will not only deliver training content but also co-supervise research and host secondments.

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in Computer Science
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD studentship offers a unique opportunity to delve into the world of Machine Learning, Mathematical Modelling, and Knowledge Discovery. The successful candidate will work on this innovative project that bridges the gap between data-driven insights and mathematical modelling, advancing the frontiers of this exciting field. This project could lead to AI computing breakthroughs that impact data intensive applications.
Application Deadline: 7 October 2024
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Chemistry
Summary of PhD Program:
This project will involve using and further developing both the experimental and data analysis methods that are currently used within the research team. The student will learn how to use the MMI apparatus, gaining knowledge of, for example, molecular and atomic beams, ultra-high vacuum systems, cryogenic technologies and a range of measurement and surface science techniques. They will also analyse the experimental data, developing techniques to extract information about the rotational orientation dependence of the gas-surface reaction, as well as performing numerical simulations to determine how best to perform the measurements to maximise the information that can be obtained.
Application Deadline: 2 October 2024
5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Electronic and Electrical Engineering
Summary of PhD Program:
The project will work alongside a leading industrial partner (Siemens), which brings together a number of world leaders in power electronics and energy conversion to develop solutions for Industrial motor drives as a primary application as well renewable energy as a secondary application. The purpose is to improve the UKs energy infrastructure in applications such as manufacturing, warehousing, utilities supply, food & beverage processing and many others as we move into a low carbon economy.
Application Deadline: 9 September 2024
6. Fully Funded PhD Position in Physics
Summary of PhD Program:
The student will join this world leading research programme, performing numerical studies of new strongly coupled field theories taking advantage of supercomputing resources at facilities based in Swansea, in the United Kingdom, and overseas. The student will perform the first extended, high precision numerical study of such models, computing their spectroscopy and phase structure, and benchmarking phenomenological applications at the crossover between particle physics and astrophysics.
Application Deadline: 4 September 2024
