Opportunities:
Industry STUDENTSHIP AVAILABLE FOR OCTOBER 2016
We have an industry studentship available. The BP project title is: Multi-phase Modelling of Oil-Water Droplet Size Distributions. Please follow the link to see further details.
Fully funded EU and UK studentships available for October 2017 entry coming soon.
We expect to have 4-year industry PhD studentships available to start in October 2017, fully funded for EU and UK candidates. Successful candidates will have an aptitude for theory and simulation and already have, or expect to achieve, a first class (or equivalent) Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in the physical sciences or a branch of engineering. Please check back for further information when the admission process for 2017 starts in late November 2016.
