Currently advertising
The WAMESS CDT is currently advertising for studentships in both tracks of the CDT (find out more about Track A and Track B).
Applications are open for Track A students. Track A is for students who wish to have their academic training programme to be concentrated in the first year of their 4 years in the CDT. Their research project is then completed over the remaining three years. This means that a student has longer in which to choose their research project. The broad initial training programme can help to inform a student’s choice of research project.
Applications are open for Track B students in the following set research projects:
- The University of Strathclyde is currently advertising for 2 studentships
- Vibration energy harvesting using Unidirectional String Mirrors Panels
- Impacts of Atmospheric Turbulence on Wind Turbine Main-Bearing Function and Failures (applications close 28th August or sooner if the position is filled)
- The University of Edinburgh is currently advertising for 3 studentships
- The University of Oxford is currently advertising for a studentship in geotechnical engineering and fluid mechanics for offshore renewable energy
