Strathclyde awarded £2.2M of doctoral studentships from the Leverhulme Trust

The University of Strathclyde has been awarded £2.2M to fund 18 PhD studentships to advance nature-inspired research.

The award from the Leverhulme Trust will fund four-year studentships, including three Master’s Plus PhDs for students from underrepresented minorities. An additional three studentships will be funded by the University.

Acoustics broadly involves sound waves and mechanical vibrations, and they have broad applications and societal implications spanning diverse disciplines from materials chemistry and electronic engineering to energy management and business. We are seeking multiple excellent students to join our new interdisciplinary Leverhulme Doctoral School in Nature-Inspired Acoustics and pursue a PhD with supervisors based across the various disciplines, including in science, chemistry, electrical and materials engineering, architecture, sociology, or psychology.
