CDT BioDesign Engineering recruiting PhDs

The EPSRC CDT in BioDesign Engineering is an interdisciplinary programme that runs between Imperial College London, University College London and University of Manchester. The CDT is now recruiting PhD positions. The application deadline is Sunday 15th January. 

All students will undertake the MRes in Systems and Synthetic Biology at Imperial College in their first year, with an extended project based at the lead-supervisor institution, followed by a 3 year PhD registration in that host institution. 

Our aim is to attract students captivated by the excitement of working in Engineering Biology, at the interface of experimental bioscience, engineering and data science. The Programme is interdisciplinary with a diverse community that welcomes students from biological sciences, physical sciences, mathematics, statistics, engineering and computing. 

We are particularly keen to recruit students whose experience is representative of the interdisciplinary nature of the course. We are recruiting both to specific projects (a list of projects is available here) as well as to the programme in general, where students will select a research topic in the first year. 

The programme requires at least an upper second class degree (or overseas equivalent). Students must also meet the English language requirement of Imperial College.
