Dear Dave,

I graduated from Royal Holloway in 2006 with a 2:2 in Physical Geography & Geology. I've spent the last 9 years in industry and am now a Chartered Geologist, having held senior roles in several mineral exploration companies. The project looks fascinating and something which I would be very keen to be a part of but, does my experience negate the lack of a Masters degree meaning I could still be considered as an applicant?

Also, is the period of time I've spent outside of academia a concern when it comes to sponsors?

Thanks,
Alastair Gallaugher

Happy New Year everyone

 

Please find attached a fully funded PhD project on the Munali deposit in Zambia which is open to applicants of any nationality (not NERC-restricted).

 

At present, application is still through the CENTA website (link below) and I am in the process of getting the deadline extended which of course means administrative delays, but wanted to send out the opportunity now.

Please pass on to any interested students and get them to contact me directly with any questions on the application process.

 

Cheers

 

Dave
