Doctoral training programmes

Doctoral training programmes provide structured PhD training and focus on multi-disciplinary challenges in modern science, with groups of students working as a cohort in a defined scientific area.

Each programme varies in structure, however studentships typically last for four years with opportunities to learn theoretical and experimental skills through lectures and/or laboratory rotations during the first year. PhD projects usually include collaborative supervision.
