Applications for PhD and MSc by research applications
There are multiple fully funded PhD studentships available each year, and we also welcome applications from self-funded students. We encourage you to contact potential supervisors in advance of submitting an application, to discuss your research interests and potential projects. For full consideration, please submit your postgraduate application materials by the deadline (usually early-mid December, yearly). For full details, see our PhD and MSc application guidance.
