PhD Studentship in Materials Research, Nottingham Trent University, UK

The School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment at Nottingham Trent University has an ambitious development strategy which allows us to offer an exciting opportunity for a PhD Studentship. The studentships will pay UK/EU fees and provide a maintenance stipend linked to the RCUK rate (£13,590 per annum for 2011/12) for up to three years. Applications are invited from those looking to pursue doctoral study in the subject area of materials research. The research area should aim to implement the scientific knowledge of innovative materials for high-performance applications and/or demonstrate the strategic use of resources utilising new materials and techniques for existing products and processes. Research areas could include a design application related to healthcare, energy, textiles, communication, displays/ lighting, plastics, packaging, sensors/sensing materials or nanotechnology.
The University has recently established a Materials Research Group. This is a new and ambitious innovation that aims to bring together researchers who share an interest in materials from across the University. The group also extends as a research hub connecting with higher education institutions, funding bodies and private enterprise world wide. It also allows individual members to communicate and engage with colleagues and external partners including innovation networks and knowledge transfer networks. The materials research group will also subscribe to a system to distribute research funding calls.
