We’re looking for the world’s brightest minds to join us in developing cutting edge research and wind solutions to the environmental and engineering challenges the offshore wind industry is facing.
The EPSRC Aura Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Offshore Wind Energy and the Environment is led by the Energy and Environment Institute at the University of Hull with partner universities Durham, Newcastle and Sheffield. Working closely with over 20 international industry partners, the Aura CDT invites high-quality applications for 4-year taught and research PhD scholarships starting 16th September 2019.
Your research could make a real impact to the exciting challenges in the offshore wind industry. You will initially study in Hull, in the heart of the UK’s Energy Estuary, and the global centre for research, innovation and development for the sector. In subsequent years, candidates may be based at one of the partner universities of Hull, Durham, Newcastle or Sheffield and get real sector experience with the industry partners mapped to your chosen area of research. These are fully funded PhD opportunities to attract exceptional graduates to this pioneering industry.
This is a multidisciplinary opportunity in a number of related subject areas:
- Big marine data and metocean;
- Environmental interactions, seabed dynamics and benthic habitat;
- Logistics, safety and risk;
- Low carbon transitions and community benefits;
- Next generation materials and manufacturing;
- Operations and remote autonomous monitoring in hostile environments.
