The aim of the Structured PhD in Electronic Engineering is to provide the student with an opportunity to carry out a significant body of research work with support from the structured module component of the programme. The programme will offer both academic modules to enhance the student's specialist knowledge, and transferable skills modules. These modules will add significantly to the PhD experience by broadening the skill base of the candidate.
The first step in the application process is to identify a general research area that you are interested in and a potential supervisor in MU and FZU; then contact a member of the department’s staff that is specialising in that area. Note that applicants should only apply for the programme after they have secured agreement from a relevant member of staff to supervise their research. More information on research in the department can be found in the Research Interests section.
