EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Aerosol Science

This four-year doctoral training programme in Aerosol Science is part of the multi-institutional EPSRC Aerosol Science Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) and aims to provide scientists and engineers with a broad overview of the aerosol science sector in addition to in-depth training in detailed measurements, analysis and application approaches. The initial full-time training phase of the doctoral training programme is aimed at building skills through taking taught courses at the University of Bristol, followed by a thematic broadening research placement that allows for complementary skills building. The taught courses provide training in the underlying physical science governing the properties and transformation of aerosols. Final research projects are agreed upon at the start of the PhD and will be advertised for students to select. The CDT operates in collaboration with the Universities of Bristol, Bath, Birmingham, Hertfordshire, Imperial College London, Surrey and Manchester. The majority of awards are made to Home students, but up to 30% may be made to International (including EU) students. International students receiving UKRI funding are automatically eligible for the University Fee Bursary Scheme to cover the difference between the Home and International fee rates.
