Hertfordshire is offering several PhD positions to commence in Oct
2020:
https://www.herts.ac.uk/research/centres/car/research-degrees-and-studentships
Several STFC scholarships are available for UK students.
University-funded scholarships (which provide full funding) are
available for EU and international students. In addition, the
Bell-Burnell fund, administered by the IoP, aims to support full or
part-time graduates who wish to study towards a doctorate in physics
and are from groups that are currently under-represented in physics.
For the purpose of this fund the definition of under-represented
groups refers to: women, students of Black-Caribbean, Black-African
and other minority ethnic (BAME) heritage, students with disabilities,
or who require additional funding to support inclusive learning, LGBT+
students and students from disadvantaged backgrounds who may struggle
to find the levels of funding needed to complete their studies.
Priority will be given to applications received by 1 Feb 2020. Those
wishing to apply to study at Hertfordshire through the Bell-Burnell
fund should contact the Postgraduate Tutor ([log in to unmask]) as
soon as possible (and no later than 15 Dec 2015, see webpage above for
more details).
The Centre has a strong research programme, across a broad spectrum of
theoretical and observational topics and is offering projects in the
following areas:
Galaxies, Active Galactic Nuclei and Cosmology
