I graduated in 2013 from Newcastle University with a 1st Class BSc in Natural Sciences; Mathematics and Physics. Since studying, I started careers in both finance and technology consultancy. I learned a lot from my enjoyed my time working, but realised I missed the subjects I loved studying whilst at University. My PhD project will be: Accurate Electronic Structure Calculations of Diamond: Quantum Dots and Defect Energies at Newcastle University. This programme seems like an amazing opportunity due to the range of subjects taught, strong industry links, and teaching from subject matter experts. I am keen to begin learning again and to take full advantage of the wide range of skills development on offer.
