Doing a research degree
If you already have a good Master’s degree then you can apply to be enrolled directly on to the PhD programme. Alternatively, if you have a good first degree you will probably have to register for our 1+3 programme which includes a 1 year MSc in Social Research Methods and Statistics followed by a 3 year PhD. This will give you the opportunity to gain research skills that are essential to work at doctoral level. Of course, you needn’t do your PhD on a full-time basis; part-time study is also a possibility.
How to apply
Potential applicants should have a good first degree (first or upper second). In the first instance expressions of interest should be addressed to the Social Statistics Executive administrator: Margaret Martin.
Formal applications can be made on-line or by mail (forms available from Vicky Barnes who administers our postgraduate admissions).
Five studentships are available; from the Economic & Social Research Council. These prestigious awards include fees and an annual stipend of up to £16,290 and an additional allowance for research expenses. For further information please visit www.ccsr.ac.uk/phd
To apply for one of these simply indicate that this is your intended source of funding in the financial section of the application form. If your application for a PhD place is successful, we will contact you about the nomination process.
There is also a bursary - the Stanley Jevons postgraduate loyalty bursary - for University of Manchester undergraduates who start an ESRC-recognised Masters.

Denmark: PhD Scholarship at Technical University of Denmark 2010-2013
Technical University of Denmark offers PhD Vacancy or Scholarship in Environmental assessment of CO2 contamination in shallow aquifers.
Applications are invited for a PhD scholarship in the area of groundwater geochemistry related to potential effects of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) The PhD position will be funded by the Danish Council for Strategic Research, in the research project Environmental Technology For Geological Storage Of Carbon Dioxide running 2010-2013.
Project description
The need to reduce the rise in the CO2 concentration of the atmosphere has initiated the development of techniques aiming at reducing the CO2 emission from power plants and other point sources. One of these techniques is to capture CO2 at the point source and then inject it in pressurized form as a supercritical liquid into depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs, in the deep ocean or in deep saline aquifers. Little attention has so far been paid on the possible impacts of CO2 storage on the shallow groundwater systems which frequently are exploited for drinking water and feed streams and wetlands. The acidification caused by CO2 entering the aquifer from below could mobilize trace metals and the higher levels of bicarbonate might desorb phosphate and arsenate deteriorating drinking water and surface water quality. Increased rates of mineral dissolution could increase aquifer permeability leading to rapid transport of contaminants. Field based studies elucidating these aspects are clearly needed.
The PhD project will investigate the consequences of high CO2 concentrations entering into aquifers through a combination of laboratory column experiments and field experiments in aquifers. Geochemical modeling should be an integral part of the experimental planning and interpretation and extrapolation of the results.
Qualifications
For this position we seek a PhD candidate with a Master’s degree in aquatic geochemistry or a related field. Experience with laboratory and field investigations as well as geochemical modeling will be advantageous. We expect good communication skills, both verbally and in writing. The position is open to both international and Danish candidates.
The PhD project will be carried out at DTU Environment www.env.dtu.dk in close collaboration with GEUS (Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland) (www.geus.dk)
Approval and Enrolment
The PhD candidate will be enrolled at the Technical University of Denmark, DTU Environment and be part of the large and divers group of PhD students there. The full scholarship will be for an enrollment period of 3 years.
The scholarships for the PhD degree are subject to academic approval, and the candidates will be enrolled in the Chemistry, Biotechnology and Chemical Engineering PhD programme at DTU. For information about the general requirements for enrolment and the general planning of the scholarship studies, please see the DTU PhD Guide.
Salary and appointment terms
The salary and appointment terms (3 years) are consistent with the current rules for PhD students.
The successful candidate will be expected to start as soon as possible after May 1st, 2010.

Its main success factor is creating an environment of close daily collaboration between medical doctors and technology researchers. At present the multi-disciplinary research team includes PhD students and post doctors with the following backgrounds:
Medicine Cybernetics Neuroscience Psychology
Physics Electronics Physiology
Mathematics ICT Molecular biology
The MI Lab partners are St. Olavs Hospital, GE Vingmed Ultrasound, FAST, MediStim, Sonowand, NordicNeuroLab, Arctic Silicon Devices, Odetect, CorTechs Labs and Sintef.
For more information on MI Lab please see: www.ntnu.no/milab
The PhD positions will have different tasks in the areas of ultrasound technology, including acoustics, probe design, electronics, signal processing and image/video analysis. Also clinical research projects in applications of a new pocket-sized ultrasound scanner, and heart and brain imaging with MR and Ultrasound are available.
We will to some extent tailor each PhD project to the candidates special competence and interests.
