PhD / EngD Opportunities

Open opportunities for a 2027 start will be linked here when funding is available. We are always open to applying for URSS funding for industrially-related summer projects, please get in touch in October or November for a discussion.

PhDs / EngDs / MSc by Research starting October 2027 or earlier

If you are self-funded student, or are keen to apply for a Warwick scholarship and meet the criteria, then please get in touch with us to discuss options, as we have a range of potential PhD / EngD / MSc by Research projects available in the areas of:

Ultrasonic flow measurement
Liquid crystal ultrasonic detectors
Ultrasonic NDT
Ultrasonic transduction using magnetostrictive patch sensors
Robotic NDT using EMATs and eddy current sensors

In principle, self-funded students can start at any time, but it is sometimes better to start in October and go through the induction process with the other new posgrad starters.

If you would like to discuss the option of going for one of the Warwick Scholarships, then please read the University website to find out more about what you could apply for and then contact us to discuss. Bear in mind that some of the Scholarship schemes have an deadline that can be almost 1 year before the actual start of the PhD, so plan ahead:
