Overview

We are currently recruiting bright minds to our fully-funded four-year PhD studentships in Physics/Engineering starting in September 2020. The studentship cover fees, stipend and a small project budget for the succesful candidate. You will join our Centre for Doctoral Training in Metamaterials, consisting of more than 60 PhD students, postdocs and academic staff from the UK, the EU and beyond, who are training in a stimulating, challenging yet supportive cohort-based environment. Fully funded projects Fees, stipend and research/training budget are provided by the CDT through sponsorship of an industrial partner and/or the College: - Artificial Magnetic Conductor Surfaces for Conformal Antenna Design (3884) (†) - Dstl - Beaming light in new directions - metasurfaces for tuneable control optics (3449) () - Dstl - Laser implosion fusion for clean energy generation (3450) (†) - AWE PLC - Making the world sound better – acoustic metamaterials for manipulating sound in air and underwater (3441) (†) - Dstl - Miniaturised helical antennas for superdirectivity (3885) (†) - Dstl - New metasurfaces for acoustic control (3456) () - QinetiQ - Next generation metasurfaces: tensorial surfaces for novel antenna functionality (3398) (†) - Dstl - Quantum Nano-photonics – the science and technology of new sources of light (3802) - Smaller, Lighter, More Energy Efficient – using metamaterials and 3D printing to push antennas to the limits (3444) (†) - Thales () Projects marked with an asterisk are limited to UK applicants only.
