Subject: FW: Call for EngD / PhD Research Project Proposals

Dear Kirsten and Lorraine

Please could you circulate to academic colleagues in Physics and the Institute of Photonics who may have industry research ideas that could align with the call for the EngD & PhD research studentships below.

Strathclyde have been involved with his CDT for many years and some of you have supported a number of students through the CDT in the past For new staff and those of you who are less familiar with the CDT it support industry related research and the scope of the CDT is relatively broad to include photonic sensing, system development, metrology, laser systems, imaging and photonic-related signal processing. Each project requires industry funding, which provides a project budget for the academic and a stipend enhancement for the student - which help make these studentship attractive to students who may wish to proceed in to industry after their doctorate. The CDT, University & Faculty cover the EPSRC fees and stipend. Further details are available in the CDT email below and on the CDT website but please let get in touch if you have any questions.

Regards

Gordon

Dear Gordon,

Call for EngD / PhD Research Project Proposals

The Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Applied Photonics is a consortium of academic and industrial researchers with the objective of supporting industrially-informed doctoral research projects related to photonics and optics.  The CDT has been funded by EPSRC and Industry since 2001 and is the longest running Centre for Doctoral Training in Photonics in the UK.

We are now inviting proposals from companies for new EngD and PhD research projects.  To join the CDT, students apply to specific projects, so to attract candidates for entry in September 2021, we request that industrial project proposals reach us ideally by 17 December 2020 however we will accept proposals after this date.  Any company with a research activity in the UK is eligible to participate.  Full details of the level of financial support required to host a project, along with further information can be found on the Industrial Partner page<http://cdtphotonics.hw.ac.uk/propose-a-project/> of the CDT website.

Students entering in September 2021 will complete their technical taught courses by the end of May 2022, starting their research with the industry sponsor shortly after.

Project proposals can be submitted using the Project Proposal Form which can also be found on the Industrial Partner page<http://cdtphotonics.hw.ac.uk/propose-a-project/>. The form can then be emailed to cdtphotonics at hw.ac.uk<mailto:cdtphotonics at hw.ac.uk>.

I would be grateful if you would circulate details of our Centre as widely as possible to the relevant individuals within your organisation.

Detailed information about the CDT can be found on our CDT website<http://cdtphotonics.hw.ac.uk/> and in our Annual Report 2020/21<https://www2.hw.ac.uk/mediaservices/pageflip/EPS/CDTPhotonics_Annual_Report_2019/>. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have specific questions relating to how your company can engage with our Centre.

Yours sincerely
