Volcanology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Non-European Students

We have 11 Volcanology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Non-European Students

The starting behaviour of volcanic eruption plumes

This project will explore the factors that control the initial height of ‘starting’ volcanic plumes, and test the hypothesis that the height is related to the initial power of the eruption. Read more

Percolative reactive flow - ore formation in a capsule

Understanding the evolution of Earth’s crust, including the formation of magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits, requires knowledge of the processes responsible for magmatic differentiation, which in turn depends on the distribution and mobility of fluids and melts in the crust. Read more

Multiparametric geophysics and geothermal resources

Geothermal fluids are rich in heat and can hold a wealth of valuable minerals. A key challenge is finding these fluid reservoirs and assessing important parameters such as porosity, permeability and conductivity. Read more

Fate of past submarine volcanic input to the ocean

Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) are extremely large volumes of extrusive igneous rock, created during relatively short-lived volcanic events during the Phanerozoic, often coinciding with major environmental (e.g., Cenozoic hyperthermals and Mesozoic oceanic anoxic events or OAEs) and biotic change (e.g., mass extinctions). Read more

Draw down of volcanic CO2 as a mechanism of climate recovery following periods of enhanced volcanism in Earth’s geological past

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) have been linked with major disruptions of Earth’s climate system. These include four of the five major mass extinctions of the Phanerozoic and widespread episodes of environmental change during Ocean Anoxic Events (OAE). Read more

Unlocking Earth's volcanic record with novel computer vision approaches

We invite applications from qualified and highly motivated students for 3.5-year PhD Studentships in the School of Earth & Environmental Sciences (SEES) at the University of St Andrews. Read more

School of Geography and Sustainable Development / Edwards Scholarships

We’re delighted to announce five fully funded PhD scholarships which are open to candidates of all nationalities. Two scholarships are part of the School scheme initiated in 2020 and represent our ongoing commitment to postgraduate research. Read more

PhD in Geographical and Earth Sciences - Planetary Analogues – Exploring Earth to aid Mars Sample Return

Start Date. 01 October 2025. Aim. This research will identify similarities and differences between the rocks and sand collected on Mars by the NASA Perseverance rover, the associated NASA/ESA Mars sample return analogue materials, and Martian meteorites. Read more
