THOMAS YOUNG CENTRE:
THE LONDON CENTRE FOR THEORY AND SIMULATION OF MATERIALS
This is a four-year PhD programme, whose aim is to train physical science and engineering postgraduates to carry out cutting-edge multidisciplinary research in the theory and simulation of materials.
The first year provides a rigorous training in the theoretical methods and simulation techniques. The DTC is run by academics in the departments of Aeronautics, Chemical Engineering, Physics, Materials, Chemistry, and Mechanical Engineering. At least 10 four-year fully-funded studentships are expected to be available for EU students ordinarily resident in the UK for October 2010 entry.
For full details, including education and training courses, application procedure and contacts, go the DTC web-site.
Before making a formal application, students are encouraged to contact the DTC Admissions Tutor, Dr. Peter Haynes (p.haynes@imperial.ac.uk).
