Electrical Engineering (cell) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 15 Electrical Engineering (cell) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Thermo-electric materials for tab cooling of advanced batteries

Supervisory Team.   Prof Richard Wills, Dr Iris Nandhakumar. Project description. Effective thermal management of lithium-based battery systems is important for optimising cell efficiency, reducing cell degradation and preventing catastrophic failure. Read more

Understanding how electrical communication can regulate metabolic cycles in bacteria biofilms

Project Overview. A biofilm is a robust form of bacteria colony resistant to antibiotics. They have significant impacts on a multitude of industries impacting health and industrial processes such as in food production and water security. Read more

PhD in Development of Sustainable and Smart Battery Cells

Project Overview. Electrifying the transportation sector is imperative to achieving net zero targets. Developing next-generation batteries will underpin this transition, particularly for heavier duty transportation, such as larger industrial vehicles, and the marine and aerospace sectors. Read more

Development of integrated microfluidic chips for making mRNA nanomedicines

Project. Messenger RNA (mRNA) provides a highly flexible platform for the development of vaccines. A robust immune response typically requires both an antibody response and a T-cell response. Read more

Atomic Layer Deposition of Novel Nanolayer Materials for Solar Cells

Project Description. Solar photovoltaics (PV) has emerged as THE breakthrough technology which will underpin the coming clean energy transition and allow us to address the epochal challenge of climate change. Read more

Hydrogen degradation in silicon solar cells and modules

Hydrogen is everywhere and it is degrading our solar cells and modules! We need people to help us work out how and why. Please get in contact if you are interested in a PhD to help us solve this challenge using any or all of. Read more

Sustainable production of lithium using battery materials

Supervisory Team.   Prof Richard Wills, Prof. Nuria Garcia-Araez. Project description. The accelerating growth of the battery market requires major advances in the production of lithium for the supply of materials to manufacture the batteries. Read more

Holistic understanding of optimal lithium-ion battery fast charging

Lithium-ion batteries are the technology of choice for electric vehicles and other battery powered applications, with the ability to fast charge becoming increasingly important. Read more

Nanocellulose as a Sustainable Electrolyte for Electrochemical Energy Conversion

The Hydrogen Economy will help to shift society away from fossil fuels and contribute to decarbonisation. Polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) can convert renewable energy into green hydrogen, whilst polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) convert hydrogen into electrical power. Read more

Distributed Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for Energy Transition

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more
