Postgraduate Opportunities in the School of Physics

Links to the PhD and MSc projects currently available in the School of Physics are given below. If one of these projects interests you, get in touch to the project leader, providing the necessary information needed for an initial contact. In particular indicate your degree, your final or expected mark, your previous research experience if any, why you are interested in the project, and why you believe you are a suitable candidate.

It is important to note that not all projects are fully funded. Some projects are associated with grants, perhaps from SFI or the EU, which pay a student's fees and a stipend. Others do not and rely on the student obtaining their own funding.
