Do you have a Master’s degree and are looking for fully funded PhD opportunities? Newcastle University, England is now accepting applications for several funded PhD programs across a range of research areas.
1. Fully Funded PhD in Computer Science: Physics-Informed Data-Driven Techniques for Safe and Secure Autonomous Systems
Summary of Funded PhD Program
Autonomous systems are intricate networked models that seamlessly integrate cyber components (computation and communication) with physical elements, operating within a feedback loop. These systems make decisions independently of direct human intervention, and their growing complexity arises from factors such as high-dimensionality, uncertainty, and difficult-to-model dynamics. The primary goal of this research is to address these complexities by developing data-driven techniques that offer mathematical guarantees for verifying and designing safe and secure autonomous systems.

2. Fully Funded PhD in Computer Science: Analysing and Visualizing Brain-Heart Interactions in Health and Disease
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The interaction between the heart and the brain is highly complex, especially in paroxysmal disorders, such epilepsy. Certain epileptic seizures commonly occur in association with changes in heart function; and some patients with cardiac abnormalities (e.g. QT prolongation) can have a primary seizure disorder and intractable focal epilepsy. For example, patients with concealed long QT syndrome (LQTS) can present clinically as syncope, seizures, or sudden cardiac death (SCD), and as such LQTS is often misdiagnosed as epilepsy. This research aims to analyse and visualise brain-heart interactions to predict early signs of ventricular arrhythmia/SCD, and other relevant phenomena in neurological conditions such as epilepsy, using ECG and EEG data.
Application Deadline: 15 November 2024

4. Fully Funded PhD in Nineteenth-Century France
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The School of Modern Languages at Newcastle University invites applications for a funded doctoral studentship within the broad area of French studies in the long nineteenth century. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape their own research project related to this general topic. Interdisciplinary proposals are warmly encouraged, and applications are welcomed from students of Modern Languages, Musicology, History, Art History, Theatre Studies, English, Comparative Studies, or other related fields in the Humanities. Their research will be supervised by Dr Hannah Scott and a second co-supervisor, to be selected depending on the particular focus of the project.
Application Deadline: November 1st 2024
5. Fully Funded PhD in farm tenancies in the North East of England
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The North East of England has the highest number of farm tenancies in the UK. This PhD research will investigate the current situation of farm tenants, and the challenges they face as land use changes. It is anticipated that the research will involve interviewing farm tenants and estate owners, and possible comparison with tenant farmers in other parts of the UK. Additional interviews will involve people dealing with the legal framework of tenancies to gain knowledge of restrictive covenants and other legal matters linked to tenancies. A knowledge of the UK is desirable.
Application Deadline: 11th October 2024
