A number of funded places are available for research leading to a PhD in Chemical Engineering starting in October 2000 or possibly earlier. A list of project areas is given below.
Postgraduate students can earn extra money by teaching in tutorial classes and laboratories.
A limited amount of funding is also available to well-qualified overseas students. Such students are also strongly advised to seek funding from other sources such as the British Council. The entry requirement for a PhD is a good Honours degree in Chemical Engineering. Other degree subjects such as Chemistry, Mathematics or Computer Science may be acceptable for certain projects. A PhD studentship is available to carry out research in the area of solid oxide fuel cells.
