At the University of Bath, we have a reputation for excellence in teaching and research. We can offer a superb student experience and provide outstanding preparation for the workplace.
We received our Royal Charter in 1966 and are well-established as a top ten UK university (The Guardian University Guide 2022, The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022, and the Complete University Guide 2022). Among other accolades, students gave a score of 86% for overall satisfaction (National Student Survey 2021).
Doctoral researchers joining us can enjoy a diverse, research-intensive environment with a strong and positive ethos. You will have the opportunity to work with internationally recognised academics and researchers, known for the originality and significance of their work.
By joining our growing Doctoral College community, you will benefit from a network of students from around the world studying across a range of programmes including PhDs, integrated PhDs, and professional doctorates. Around a third of our doctoral researchers study part time, with some combining research and a career. Many are based on campus whilst others are in professional organisations.
You will have the opportunity to share ideas and best practice, attend seminars and conferences, and explore thinking at the forefront of your discipline. You will gain access to resources and archives at four leading research institutions through our GW4 Alliance. You will also benefit from a Professional Development programme that will give you the tools to support your research and give you the head-start you need in your chosen career.
The University of Bath advertises funded studentships across the following:
The city
Bath is a lively, friendly, and historic city, surrounded by beautiful countryside. The city is home to global businesses and start-up companies, so you can find local employment opportunities while you study and when you graduate. Bath is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list twice; for its historic architecture and as one of the Great Spas of Europe.
Small enough to explore on foot, you can discover Bath’s beautiful architecture and the natural hot springs which gave the city its name. All year round, Bath offers arts festivals, museums, galleries, and spas to indulge yourself in.
Our campus
Bath offers one of the safest University campuses in the UK. The purpose-built campus is set in picturesque rural grounds overlooking the historic city of Bath. Investment of over £4.5 million has given the campus new academic research buildings, new postgraduate accommodation, and brand-new facilities.

Our philosophy
As a joint Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering we engage in research and develop graduate courses where integration between the disciplines is likely to be most valuable.
Research is also carried out in collaboration with other departments in the University, particularly Mechanical Engineering, Electronic & Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Management, and Computer Science.
The dissemination of research findings is seen as a vital component of the research process and graduate students are encouraged to prepare papers for publication as part of their research training. We encourage a wide range of interests. Academic staff are always open to ideas which extend existing work or introduce new topics to their existing subject areas.
Our applicants
The MPhil and PhD programmes are an integral part of the Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering. Successful applicants are welcomed as junior academic colleagues rather than students, and are expected to play a full and professional role in contributing to the Department’s objective of international academic excellence.
We seek applications from outstanding individuals from anywhere in the world who are strongly committed to and potentially capable of high-quality academic research in any of the disciplinary areas covered by our Research Centres.

Physics at the University of Bath is a top-ranked UK research department offering scientific programmes leading to PhD in the following fields:
• Astrophysics: Advanced ground and space-based technology is exploited to collect cosmic signals from distant objects and use this information to study the structure, dynamics and evolution of galaxies, the physics of star formation, the role of black holes in galactic evolution, accretion (how matter comes together in space) and the role of cosmic magnetic fields in harnessing the energy of spinning black holes.
• Nanoscience: Innovative atomic-scale characterisation tools are used for the manipulation and design of novel functional materials on the nanoscale. Techniques embrace low temperature UHV scanning probe microscopy, x-ray synchrotron and neutron scattering, while facilities include the Graphene Centre and the David Bullett Nanofabrication Laboratory. Research encompasses the structural, transport, magnetic and superconducting properties of condensed matter at the nanoscale, including the interaction between electrons and photons in semiconductor and metallic systems.
• Photonics: The Centre for Photonics & Photonic Materials (CPPM) leads a major international effort in the field of linear and nonlinear photonics and optoelectronics, particularly in the context of novel and microstructured fibres. It benefits from an outstanding international reputation for its work on the optics of micro-structured materials, in particular the photonic crystal fibre (PCF) which was pioneered in Bath.
• Theoretical and Computational Physics: Computational and theoretical methods are being spearheaded to bridge the behaviour of complex systems on multiple length and time scales. Many projects benefit from access to Balena, the University’s high performance computing cluster with over 3000 CPU cores. Research spans the condensed matter/optical physics spectrum and embraces the electronic and nanoscale properties of surfaces, photonic crystals, nanomagnetism, charge transport in optoelectronic devices, soft matter and biophysics, and network theory as applied to animal behaviour.
The Department also hosts or is a partner in 4 research centres:
