4 fully funded PhD Studentships at the University of Bristol

Country/Region : UK - United Kingdom

Website : http://www.bris.ac.uk/pg-howtoapply

Description

SPHERE is a £12M EPSRC flagship Healthcare Technology research programme comprising more than 35 postgraduate and postdoctoral researchers.
We are looking to nurture a new breed of healthcare scientist and engineer, pushing the capabilities of wireless sensor networks, video, data analytics and energy harvesting and addressing the exponential growing healthcare needs of the global population. Meeting these needs in an economically-viable manner is currently a hot topic in industry, with many household names establishing R&D activity in this space. SPHERE includes project partners from industry (including IBM and Toshiba) and it is likely that successful applicants would work closely with these partners, possibly including placements in their laboratories.
Applications are welcomed from UK/EU students with, or expecting to gain, a first or upper second class honours degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Biomedical Engineering or related discipline.
Fully-funded SPHERE studentships are available to UK nationals/EU nationals who have been resident in the UK for 3 years or more.
SPHERE is pleased to offer an enhanced stipend of £15,500 in year 1 and £16,500 in years 2 and 3, and also provides an allowance for international conference attendance.
Please make an online application for this project at www.bris.ac.uk/pg-howtoapply. Please select a PhD in Computer Science or PhD in Electrical and Electronic Engineering on the Programme Choice page and in the 'Funding' section of the Application form under 'How do you intend to pay your tuition fees?' select 'Other', then in the box below enter 'SPHERE PhD Studentship'.
Application Deadline: 29th January 2015
