Do you have a Master’s degree and are looking for fully funded PhD opportunities? Coventry University, England is now accepting applications for several funded PhD programs across a range of research areas.
1. Fully Funded PhD in Investigating the Neurocognitive Mechanisms Underlying the Benefits of Classroom Exercise Breaks in School-Age Children
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The present proposal aims to address the urgency of undercovering the underlying mechanisms by which CEB might improve cognitive performance in school-age children by using an interdisciplinary approach. The novelty of using a portable neuroimaging device (i.e., fNIRS) can be a significant advantage as it can be used in school settings compared to other traditional methods, often requiring lab visits (EEG/fMRI). Given this, we aim to advance the field by revealing underlying mechanisms of the ultimate benefit of CEB for children’s executive function.

2. Fully Funded PhD in Experiences of using GenAI in assessment for teaching and learning in Higher Education
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The rapid maturation of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) platforms such as Chat GPT have the potential to massively disrupt universities and industry, creating a watershed moment for higher education. With many easily available genAI tools now capable of completing common assessment tasks, and with detection tools proving unreliable and unsustainable, the emergence of genAI is causing academics and universities around the world to review the effectiveness of their assessment strategies and their capacity to assure that students achieve the learning outcomes associated with awarded qualifications (Dianova and Schultz, 2023).
Application Deadline: 15 January 2025
3. Fully Funded PhD in Electric Drives System of High Speed Permanent Magnet Motor Control
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The proposed project aims to address the existing challenges of high speed motor drive system, such as low position detection accuracy, low system stability, and large current harmonics. To achieve that, the project will involve extensive research, including a comprehensive analysis of various inverter/controller topologies and corresponding modulation strategies to determine the most suitable options for the target applications. Additionally, the project will address various motor control strategies to ensure optimal performance by increasing system efficiency and reliability while reducing system complexity.

4. Fully Funded PhD in Predicting cognitive performance in ADHD with advanced deep learning and network analysis in functional neuroimaging
Summary of Funded PhD Program
This project aims to explore whether EEG and/or resting state fMRI can provide a quantitative and effective approach to identify a neural signature of attention lapses during cognitive task. Additionally, we would like to evaluate whether an integration of network-level analysis and deep learning techniques would improve the prediction compared with traditional methods.
Application Deadline: 15 January 2025
5. Fully Funded PhD in Failure cascading modelling in interdependent power-communication cyber-physical networks
Summary of Funded PhD Program
This project aims to develop a model to analyse the resilience of interdependent power and communication networks against cascading failures. The research will address the complexities of failure propagation between these two critical infrastructures using a combination of graph-based models, advanced simulation techniques, and statistical AI/ML approaches. This research will contribute to developing new insights into the resilience of interdependent networks, leading to more resilient systems that can anticipate, absorb, and recover from disruptions.

6. Fully Funded PhD in Design and impact of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The aim of the study is to facilitate the integration of AI in university teaching and learning, focusing on Higher Education (HE) teachers’ experiences with GenAI technologies. According to the 2023 Government Innovation Strategy (UK Innovation Strategy, 2023), GenAI could revolutionise the way teaching and learning is orchestrated to students leading to seamless, intelligent services that are more tailored to student’s needs.
Application Deadline: 15 January 2025
7. Fully Funded PhD in Atlantic Stories, Colonial Legacies and the Bodleian Library, 1650-1800
Summary of Funded PhD Program
This project examines the legacies of English transatlantic colonialism as preserved in the collections of the Bodleian Libraries. It investigates the history of the Bodleian collections and the Library’s own institutional history, bringing to light the forms in which the Library has preserved an archive of colonial history and imperial power. This project responds to an ‘archival turn’, in which archives, methods, and practice are being interrogated. Much of the impetus for this comes from recent attention to institutional colonial legacies, precipitated by the British manifestation of the American Black Lives Matter movement and movements for post-colonial justice such as ‘Rhodes Must Fall’.
