Plymouth University offers PhD studentship
for UK/EU and international students in the UK. The successful
candidate will study the impacts of a wave farm on coastal processes
within this PhD project. Applicants should have a first or upper second
class honours degree in an appropriate subject and preferably
(but not necessarily) a relevant MSc or MRes qualification. The
studentship is supported for 3 years and includes full Home/EU tuition
fees plus a stipend of £13,726 per annum.
About Scholarship: Wave energy is one of the renewable energy sources with the greatest potential for development; however, understanding its environmental impacts is fundamental to its wide-scale adoption on a commercial basis. Combining the expertise of Plymouth University and Pelamis Wave Power, one of the major industry players in the sector, this PhD project will study the impacts of a wave farm on coastal processes.
A suite of numerical models – including wave, hydrodynamics and sediment transport models – will be applied, complemented by field data as appropriate. The successful candidate will be supervised by a team of experienced academics from the Coastal, Ocean and Sediment Transport (COAST) Research Group of Plymouth University and based at the offices of Pelamis Wave Power (in Edinburgh) to benefit from daily interaction with their staff and being able to match the project to the real-world regulatory requirements of environmental impact assessment.
Study: Within this PhD project student will study the impacts of a wave farm on coastal processes.
Course Level: PhD degree programme
Scholarship by: Plymouth University, UK

Eligibility: Applicants should have a first or upper second class honours degree in an appropriate subject and preferably (but not necessarily) a relevant MSc or MRes qualification.
