We have 124 Aerospace Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students
Development of a miniaturised Plug-and-Play Plasma Instrumentation for Small Satellites - “PLASMACube”
Supervisory Team: Dr. Taiwo Raphael Tejumola. Project description. Small satellites, particularly CubeSats, play an increasingly vital role in space missions, from Earth observation to deep space exploration, offering diverse stakeholders a broad spectrum of missions and application possibilities. Read more
Transition modelling for improved correlation between wind tunnel tests and CFD
Supervisory Team: Dr. David Angland & Dr Zhiwei Hu. Project description. A PhD studentship is now available in transition modelling and predicting for bluff body flows. Read more
High-resolution multi-physics topology optimisation
Supervisory Team: Prof. Ali Elham. Project description. Topology optimisation is one of the most powerful engineering design technologies. Read more
Evaluating the role of hydrogen fuel at airports as part of their transition to net zero.
This project provides an annual stipend of £19,237. Project advert. The studentship will be based in the new Dalton Building at the University. Read more
Deep Learning Based Machine Vision for Space-Informed Applications
The increasing congestion of Earth's orbit with satellites and debris poses significant challenges in space activities, while sensors from space provide valuable data about the Earth to inform net zero. Read more
Aero-Engine Experimental Aerodynamics PhD
This is a full funded PhD (fees and bursary) in propulsion system aerodynamics in collaboration with Rolls-Royce and EPSRC. Fundamental understanding… Read more
Design and Optimization of Spacecraft Trajectories for Cislunar Transportation and Beyond
The establishment of space stations and logistics hubs in cislunar space could serve as waypoints for spacecraft, reducing the cost and complexity of missions to the Moon, asteroids, Mars, and beyond. Read more
Machine Learning for LDEW target recognition and line-of-sight stabilisation.
About the PhD Project. The project is to contribute to a major EPSRC research programme intended to develop generation after next technologies for applications in defence and security, and this project will be co-funded by QinetiQ. . Read more
High speed ‘laminar’ flows for laser and hypersonic applications.
About the PhD Project. The project is to contribute to a major EPSRC research programme intended to develop generation after next technologies for applications in defence and security, and this project will be co-funded by QinetiQ. . Read more
Adaptive Learning in Brain-Robot Interactions
This project aims to develop a non-invasive brain-machine interface (BMI) that allows a user to direct a semi-autonomous robot to perform different tasks through brain signals. Read more
PhD Studentship in Computer Science: Physics-Informed Data-Driven Techniques for Safe and Secure Autonomous Systems
Award summary. 100% fees covered, and a minimum tax-free annual living allowance of £19,237 (2024/25 UKRI rate). Successful international candidates will be required to fund the difference between the home fees and international fees. Read more
The impact of mineral dust on Aircraft Engines in the Middle East
Mineral dust is considered an atmospheric contaminant in aviation, due to its ability to erode and degrade components of aircraft engines over time, and also engine sensitivity to dust chemical composition. Read more
ZENITH PhD project: Elastic tailoring of composite winglet-wing systems for enhanced performance
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Bath is inviting applications for this funded PhD project expected to start in January 2025. Read more
Solid Mechanics (Electrochemo-mechanics) and Machine Learning
We are actively recruiting FULLY-FUNDED 2 Ph.D. students for solid mechanics of lithium-ion batteries. The length scale spans from atomic, molecular, and continuum levels (covering energy materials, electrode, cell, module, pack and electric vehicles). Read more
Multi-body Hypersonic Aerodynamics PhD
This is a full funded PhD (fees and bursary) in hypersonic aerodynamics in collaboration with EPSRC. The overall aim of the research is to investigate what are the aerodynamic interference characteristics, at hypersonic speeds, that are likely to adversely affect multibody separation. Read more
