nuclear PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
We have 122 nuclear PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships
PhD in Mechanical Engineering - Modelling Flexible Nuclear Power Plant Integration in Future Low Carbon Energy Systems
The increasing penetration of intermittent renewable power within the UK energy network will require additional flexibility from conventional sources of generation, such as nuclear power plants. Read more
Accelerator-based experimental studies of exotic nuclear structures
Applications are invited for a fully funded studentship leading to a PhD degree in nuclear physics. Read more
Doctoral Studentship in Experimental Nuclear Astrophysics: Experimental study of the 10B(,n)13N reaction via activation technique at astrophysical energies
Research area description. The project falls in the area of experimental nuclear astrophysics. Stellar evolution is governed by thermonuclear reactions between (mostly) stable nuclei. Read more
PhD in the Production & Analysis of Nuclear Threat Reduction Relevant Radionuclides
The UK’s Nuclear Threat Reduction (NTR) programme requires regular access to samples of relevant radionuclides in order to demonstrate its capability in nuclear forensics (NF) investigations. Read more
Deciphering the landscape of nucleoporin and lamin function in nucleocytoplasmic communication, nuclear scaffolding and transcriptional control in disease prevention
The nucleus has an instrumental role in cellular responses by coordinating shuttling of components in and out of the nucleus and gene expression with genome architecture and stability. Read more
