  PhD studentships in Engineering


 

 Funded PhD Programme (Students Worldwide)

About the Programme

We offer PhDs in Engineering (MPhil/PhD) across seven research themes: Communication & Information Engineering; Computational Engineering; Data-Centric Engineering; Design & Mechatronics; Energy & Power Systems; Manufacturing, Materials & Systems; and Signals & Control.

About the Programme

The Department of Engineering has an international reputation and world-leading research across engineering topics ranging from bioprocessing, robotics, control, communications and signal processing to thermal engineering, energy storage, power grids, electric drives, materials, tribology and fluid dynamics.  Our research receives funding from research councils (EPSRC, BBSRC), industry and charitable organisations.

Much of our department research is multidisciplinary, sitting at the interfaces of engineering with mathematics, chemistry, physics, computer science, arts and medicine. We also have research that reaches into geography, policy and human behaviour.

At King’s, we are deeply committed to embedding equity and diversity in all our activities, making the department and university an inclusive, welcoming and inspiring place to study.
