Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Science and Applications of Graphene and Related Nanomaterials (Graphene NOWNANO)
Established in 2013 with EPSRC (UK Research Council) funding and now supported by the University of Manchester and industry, the Graphene NOWNANO CDT offers PhD training in science, technology and applications of the fast-growing family of two-dimensional materials. The CDT works in close collaboration with the National Graphene Institute, Graphene Engineering and Innovation Centre and Henry Royce Institute for Advanced Materials. The team of potential PhD supervisors spans 8 academic departments at Manchester and Lancaster which includes two Nobel laureates and 11 highly cited researchers (ranked within 1% of their disciplines) who are responsible for a number of breakthroughs in graphene/2D materials research and continue to lead the world in their specialist fields.
In preparation for challenging interdisciplinary 3.5 year research projects students initially complete a 6 month taught programme in the fundamentals of 2D materials and core research techniques. This is followed by further training in innovation and commercialisation of research, transferrable skills, secondments either in academia or industry and an active outreach programme introducing graphene and 2D materials to the general public.
The CDT PhD programme offers:
