PhD Studentship - School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS)

Queen's University Belfast - School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS)

The School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS) at Queen’s University Belfast is currently offering a number of funded PhD opportunities – up to 26 scholarships- commencing in October 2023.  EEECS aims to enhance the way we use technology in communication, data science, computing systems, cyber security, power electronics, intelligent control, and many related areas. 

As a PhD student you’ll be part of a dynamic doctoral research environment and will study alongside students from countries worldwide; we supervise students undertaking research in key areas including: computing systems, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, power electronics, robotics, wireless communications, cybersecurity and sensor-based systems. You’ll have the opportunity to develop your research potential in a vibrant research community that prioritises the cross-fertilisation of ideas and innovation in the advancement of knowledge. 

You will have the opportunity to develop and refine appropriate research skills and learn how to carry out significant, high-quality, original research in your specified research area, as well as having the opportunity to work with some of the most passionate internationally recognised researchers in their field.  Our PhD programmes also provide our students with the opportunity to acquire extensive training in research techniques. You will also have free access to a Structure Training plan comprised of more than 30 training courses covering from technical skills – programming, ML/AI, hardware - to leadership and time management.

Scholarships are primarily address to local and UK resident students. They provide fully paid PhD fees plus and annual tax-free stipend (~£19000) for the 3 year duration of the PhD project. This is equivalent to an entry level job in industry of > £25000. In addition, EEECS will provide Travel awards to cover the cost of trips to conferences and summer schools. Finally, EEECS PhD student will be given the opportunity to experience teaching demonstration to get to know what is to be an academic (maximum ~£500 extra per month) and apply to the School thesis and paper awards (each fitted with economic incentive).
