EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Condensed Matter Physics (CDT-CMP)

£Attractive | South West England | 27 Mar 2018

Up to 14 fully-funded PhD places for a 4-year CDT PhD programme, starting September 2018.

The Universities of Bristol and Bath joint EPSRC-funded Centre for Doctoral Training in Condensed Matter Physics (CDT-CMP): The Centre aims to train students across a broad range of disciplines in the field of hard condensed matter physics, encompassing experiment, theory, fundamental physics and device applications.

Key elements of the PhD programme

Taught courses and hands-on training in experimental and theoretical techniques during year one. Example topics include: the physics of novel materials; Device fabrication and characterization; and Theoretical modelling and simulation.

Physics techniques modules (theory and experiment), short exploratory training projects and an extended research project in a choice of groups at Universities of Bristol or Bath.

Optional research placements with our industrial and large facility partners or at leading overseas Universities.

World-leading supervisors in Condensed Matter Physics.

Embedded skills training.

A research project based in our excellently equipped laboratories with a wide choice of exciting experimental and theoretical projects in fields including: 

- Superconductors 

- Magnetic materials 

- 2D materials; graphene and beyond 

- Semiconductors 

- Photonic and plasmonic materials 

- Condensed matter theory 

- Spintronics

Funding

1+3 years tuition fees (at ‘home’ rate) and stipend. Minimum stipend for 2018/19 expected to be £14,777 Eligibility and application process

Eligibility: UK and EU students. Academic entry requirements: at least a 2.1 (or above) classification BSc/MSci/MPhys (or equivalent) degree in Physics or a related subject.
