Centre for Doctoral Training in Healthcare Innovation

Seven PhD studentships are available for the 4-year postgraduate training programme at the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Healthcare Innovation. The CDT programme represents an exciting concept in graduate training at the University of Oxford, offering PhD students the opportunity to undertake one year of intensive training, followed by three years working on a PhD.  On graduating, you will not only have gained an Oxford PhD (DPhil) in engineering but will have first-hand experience of working on clinical problems alongside engineers involved in the healthcare industry. 

Further details of the programme may be found online at:

We are looking for bright, talented students with excellent grades in their first degree in engineering or in a physical sciences subject.  You should be positive about multi-disciplinary research and have a strong interest in biomedical engineering as your PhD thesis will be in one of the following areas: information-driven healthcare; modelling for personalised healthcare; cancer therapeutics and delivery.
