1. Fully Funded PhD Position in carbon emissions from in-plant
Summary of PhD Program:
This project is an opportunity to contribute towards significant energy saving in manufacturing processes, in a collaboration with a European multi-national process engineering company and a world-leading academic research centre. A major consumer of energy in manufacturing is transfer of solid materials (powders, granules etc) in air in pipeline systems. In particular, food and pharmaceuticals find it beneficial because of containment, cleanliness and flexibility of routing. However, this adds significant cost and carbon footprint to manufacturing which needs to be reduced.

2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Accounting
Summary of PhD Program:
This project is an exciting opportunity to undertake funded PhD research while collaborating with Autonomy: an up-and-coming, highly innovative thinktank. The project will focus on nowcasting the UK economy. For some time, a lack of real-time information has been identified as a significant constraint on policymaking in this country, with many datasets only available with a lag of 3 months or more. To take one example, the only dataset that the current government could use to allocate local authorities to its High Streets Task Force was the 2019 Index of Multiple Deprivation. But this dataset relies on deprivation indicators dating from 2017 or earlier. In other words, councils are being allocated to place-based p

3. Fully Funded PhD Position in disease transmission
Summary of PhD Program:
The grey squirrel is an invasive species in the UK which negatively impacts efforts to conserve populations of the native red squirrel. Blood feeding ticks that feed on grey squirrels can also transmit pathogens to people, including the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi which causes Lyme disease. The aim of this PhD project is to explore the potential of reducing disease transmission through manipulation of tick-squirrel interactions. The student will have the opportunity to work alongside staff from several UK institutions conducting the BBSRC/Defra funded project “One Health approach to tickborne disease control through manipulation of reservoir host communities at landscape scale” led by the Natural Resources Institute, University of Greenwich.
Application Deadline: 8th September 2023
4. Fully Funded PhD Position in Controlling Additive Manufacturing with Ultrasound
Summary of PhD Program:
Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is an emerging technology that allows for on-demand direct fabrication of complex parts with far reaching applications in many sectors including biomedical, aerospace and energy. However, AM components suffer from microscopic defects such as porosity from gas bubbles, leading to voids and ultimately reduced performance. This project aims to look at how the application of ultrasound can be used to enhance the AM process. Ultrasound will interact with microscale bubbles causing degassing, hence removing porosity and/or implosion (cavitation) of these bubbles, which can disrupt the underlying metal crystalline formation leading to improved properties.

5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Humanities & Social Sciences
Summary of PhD Program:
Since at least the sixteenth century ‘Maritime Greenwich’ has been profoundly shaped by Britain’s colonial and imperial engagements and their legacies. From naval dockyards and mercantile wharves, through flourishing networks of mariners, merchants and investors to the globalised and diverse communities of the present, the places and people of Greenwich bear the imprint of empire. This project will harness these rich, complex and sometimes troubling histories to assess how the local and the global made Greenwich, and to evaluate how Greenwich is coming to terms with the legacies of empire and debates around decolonisation. To date, there has been no systematic attempt to gather and analyse the effects of empire on the Royal Borough and the people and the institutions who live and work in it. By working in partnership with public and community organisations and institutions to understand what frames a community-centred decolonial public history of Greenwich, this project will deliver the first systematic analysis of how empire shaped, and continues to shape, the Royal Borough and its inhabitants.
