PhD Research Opportunities
The Department of Materials at Imperial College London is the oldest and largest department of its kind in the UK. We have over one hundred postgraduate students working on various aspects of the properties or production of materials, and we possess world-class facilities in the areas of transmission and scanning electron microscopy, mechanical testing, X-ray diffraction and surface characterisation.
Our research cuts across the traditional disciplinary boundaries, and we therefore invite applications for research leading to the PhD degree from scientists and engineers in all appropriate subjects who have an interest in any of our research areas: Biomaterials, Advanced Alloys, Ceramics & Glasses, and Nanotechnology, including Thin Films and Materials Theory & Simulation.
