We have 62 Engineering (embedded) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students
Ultra-Low-Power Sensing for Intermittent Self-Powered Embedded Network Systems
Research Group:
Cyber Physical Systems
Internet of Things (IoT) promises billions of devices, many of which are constrained embedded networked sensors. While energy-harvesting offers a sustainable power supply, its variability means devices cannot always be powered. Read more
Embedded AI-Powered Marine Biodiversity Monitoring (Ref: CENTA2025-LU8)
This PhD project focuses on advancing computer vision and edge-AI technology for real-time marine monitoring. Read more
Self-Adaptive Artificial Intelligence at the Edge
Research Group:
Cyber Physical Systems
Mobile and embedded systems are becoming increasingly intelligent, supported by advances in efficient machine learning (ML) models and specialised processing cores to accelerate efficient operation. Read more
Precision Medicine DTP - Development of a precision medicine-based gene therapy to treat atherosclerotic disease
About the Project. Additional supervisors - Prof Judith Sluimer (Maastricht University) & Prof Lars Maegdefessel (Karolinska Institutet). Read more
Contrail mitigation in the context of operational oceanic airspace
Overview. Applications are invited for a fully-funded PhD scholarship that will advance the field of operational contrail mitigation by combining the latest science on contrails with state-of-the-art contrail forecasting tools, ATC procedures and systems to produce an end-to-end concept of operations (CONOPS). Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Holistic approach to modelling and simulation of whole electrical system
Due to the evident climate change and environmental pressures the future power/energy systems will have to operate, sooner rather than later, in a net-zero environment. Read more
Integrated design approaches of thermo-active building envelope for near zero carbon buildings and environmental sustainability
The construction sector has seen a high share of energy-related carbon emissions globally due to building operation, posing a great threat to achieving net zero carbon targets by 2050. Read more
AI/ML-Driven Discovery of Hybrid Crystal Organic Semiconductors for Next-Generation Electronic Devices
AI_CDT_DecisionMaking. Details. The development of new electronic materials that can be produced with lower embedded energy, and/or consume less energy during their operational lifetime will be critical in realiseing the challenges of net zero. Read more
University of Bath URSA project: Smart Sensing at the Edge for Precision Manufacturing
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the University of Bath URSA competition, for entry in September 2025. Read more
Hybrid Articulated Robotic Systems for Safe Human-Robot Collaboration
Research Group:
Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Articulated joints make up much of the conventional robotic systems, however, the rigidity of these systems despite artificially enhanced safety through algorithms remains a safety concern owing to critical algorithmic limitations and failures. Read more
AI for marine biodiversity monitoring
Co-supervisor. Professor Geoff Merrett. The project will explore new techniques in computer vision to enable AI on the “edge” i.e. Read more
Advanced Additive Manufacturing For Radiofrequency System Design (Ref: FP-WW-2025/MTC002)
This project is an exciting opportunity to undertake industrially linked research in partnership with the Manufacturing Technology Centre (MTC). Read more
The German Primate Center (DPZ) – Leibniz Institute for Primate Research
The German Primate Center (DPZ) – Leibniz Institute for Primate Research is one of 96 research and infrastructure establishments of the Leibniz Association. Read more
Public good games with peer-pressure and information diffusion in multiplex networks. Models and Experiments
The success of sustainable technology as well as policies cannot prescind from the uptake these are going to have amongst the general public. Read more
[FSE Bicentenary PhD] Design for Robot Verification
Robotics is widely acknowledged as being a critical technology which will enable several of the UK’s strategic theme such as “Building a Green Future” and “Building a Secure and Resilient World”. Read more
