Studentships
The Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy (as ranked by Research Quality Profile in the UK's 2008 Research Assessment Exercise) is the top-rated materials department in the UK. It is renowned for its research activities in the following areas:
Research opportunities in these and other areas can be found in our lists of PhD projects available for entry from October 2010; most of these are available for competetive allocation as EPSRC studentships allocated by the Department. A number of projects have already been allocated full or part funding by external sponsors and are available immediately - see the separate page on Project Studentships. Potential students should consult the Research area of this website and the Research Profile booklet for a more complete picture of work currently being performed in the Department. The Degree Committee of the Faculty of Physics and Chemistry sets the academic requirement for graduate admissions in this Faculty. For admission to M.Phil.courses (taught and by research) the minimum academic requirement is the equivalent of a UK Bachelor's (Honours) degree at 2:i level in a relevant subject. For Ph.D. applicants, the minimum academic requirement is the equivalent of 2:i level in a UK 4-year undergraduate Master's Degree in a relevant subject, or a 2:i in a UK 3-year Bachelor's (Honours) degree plus a good one/two year relevant Master's degree. The Department is a partner in the Doctoral Training Centre (DTC)in Nanoscience & Technology which provides funding for four year programmes for research in the collaborating departments, has joint responsibility for the Photonics Systems Development DTC with University College London (UCL), and is also home of the SKF University Technology Centre for Steels.
