PhD project
We invite applicants to propose their own research project which closely aligns with the work in one (or more) of our research groups or centres.
Applicants must identify up to two preferred supervisors for their research project. Please consult our guidance on finding a supervisor. We strongly encourage applicants to make an informal enquiry as to the supervisor’s availability and interest in the proposed research before submitting an application. An informal enquiry can help ensure a better match, thus strengthening an application.
