UK; PhD Research Studentship on Renewable Energy Production
A PhD Doctoral Training Account (DTA) research studentship, sponsored by the EPSRC, is available from September 2009 in the Chemical Engineering department, UCL. The research will focus on renewable energy production, including solar hydrogen production and CO2 conversion into liquid fuels driven directly by solar energy. The goal of this research will be to develop an efficient semiconductor photocatalyst for solar energy conversion. The applicants should possess, or expect to be awarded, at least an upper second-class honours degree or equivalent in a relevant subject, which may include Chemistry, Physics and/or Materials.
The studentship, normally for 3.5 years, provides a stipend at Research Council level (£13,290 per annum in 2009/10) and tuition fees for eligible UK residents, or a tuition fee only award for EU students.
Applications for entry in Sept 2009 should be received by the deadline of 20 June 2009. Please go to this link to complete the pre-application form.
