PhD and Student Opportunities

Training postgraduate students to become the next generation of researchers is an integral part of our mission. We offer students interesting and challenging projects that facilitate the making of new discoveries and ultimately benefits to society.

We provide our students with transferable skills usable in a wide variety of career paths and are home to a vibrant student community from across the world.

We offer three and four-year PhD studentships as part of several postgraduate training programmes. There are a variety of other funded PhD studentships advertised over the academic year. These include awards made for the Industrial CASE Studentship Programme where candidates get the opportunity to benefit from strong industrial collaborations as part of their PhD.

Students on our PhD programmes are enrolled at the University of East Anglia, our partner on the Norwich Research Park. This provides you with access to a range of courses, training opportunities and facilities at this top-tier, research-led university.

In addition to academic study with world-leading experts, we support students to develop skills in other areas, such as entrepreneurship and science communication.

We have opportunities for undergraduate students too.
