PHD STUDY IN PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY PhD study: condensed matter and materials physics The Centre for Condensed Matter and Materials Physics (CCMMP) is currently recruiting exceptional science students to begin their PhD studies. Our extensive research programme spans experimental, computational and theoretical physics, with projects ranging from investigations of the fundamental physics of condensed matter to the applications of materials physics to important technological challenges. Projects are currently available in topics including organic semiconductors and spintronics, phase transitions, liquids and glasses, supercritical matter, radiation damage, carbon, optoelectronic materials, structure-property relationships of inorganic, organic and hybrid materials, high-pressure physics, nucleation, multiferroic materials, nanoparticles, and properties of metals. Application areas include energy, transport, medicine and the environment. For information and sample project details, see: http://ccmmp.ph.qmul.ac.uk/phd/welcome

“As a CCMMP PhD student I have benefited from the support of two wonderful supervisors. With their input, I have been free to challenge the assumptions of established scientists and investigate new ideas. Their expertise and guidance has been key in enabling my development as a researcher� Hang Gu, 3rd year PhD student, Centre for Condensed Matter and Materials Physics (CCMMP) PhD student Hang Gu with supervisor Dr Theo Kreouzis
