PhD Studentship: Electromagnetic Sensing for High-Temperature Microstructural Evolution

University of Warwick · WMG

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • WMG

This PhD redefines electromagnetic sensing by moving beyond magnetic permeability-dominated approaches to establish a conductivity-driven eddy-current framework for tracking microstructural evolution at high temperature. The transition towards smarter, lower-carbon manufacturing demands new ways to understand and monitor how materials evolve during processing. This PhD project addresses a fundamental and timely challenge in electromagnetic (EM) sensing: how to quantitatively link electrical conductivity–dominated eddy current responses to microstructural evolution during high-temperature proce

PhD Studentship: Machine Learning and Computational Modelling to Define the Abnormal Heart Tissue Responsible for Fatal Heart Rhythms

University of Warwick · Warwick Medical School

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • Warwick Medical School

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) accounts for approximately 15-20% of reported deaths in the UK. Mostly, these deaths are linked to cardiac arrhythmias. One of the most common and dangerous is Ventricular Tachycardia (VT), a rapid and unstable heart rhythm that often arises from regions of diseased or scarred heart tissue. VT can lead directly to sudden cardiac death if not treated immediately. VT can be treated with a procedure called ‘catheter ablation’, which significantly reduces VT recurrence rates, reduces hospitalisations, and improves survival compared with medication alone. The goal of VT

PhD Studentship: Acting on Organisations: How Dramatic Pedagogies Shape Work, Culture and Performance

University of Warwick · Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies

A 3.5 year, fully funded full-time PhD studentship is available for commencement January 2027. This is a collaborative project between the Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies, University of Warwick and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, London. The application of theatrical training and dramatic pedagogies extends beyond performance itself. Such approaches have been employed in professional development, education, organisational change, and community engagement, reflecting a longstanding belief that drama-based learning cultivates capabilities with value across a wide range of context

AMP - Acoustically assisted Manufacturing of functional Polymers

University of Warwick · School of Engineering

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • School of Engineering

Funding for: UK, EU and International Students What if sound could be used to engineer the internal structure of materials during manufacturing? AMP will develop new acoustic methods to organise filler particles and control crystallisation in polymer composites, progressing from laboratory-scale experiments to high-temperature polymer melts. By combining experimental acoustics, materials processing, modelling and advanced characterisation, you will help create functional composites with tailored directional properties for applications including smart sensing, tactile technologies and resilient

PhD Studentship: Powering the Future: Terahertz Technology for Next-Generation Batteries

University of Warwick

  • Coventry, United Kingdom

From electric vehicles to grid-scale energy storage, the future of clean energy relies on breakthroughs in battery technology. This PhD will develop cutting-edge terahertz spectroscopy methods to unlock scalable manufacturing of next-generation solid-state batteries. The project: Solid-state electrolytes are attracting growing interest for next-generation solid-state batteries due to their improved thermal stability, reduced flammability, enhanced durability, and potential for higher energy density. However, manufacturing high-performance electrolytes remains challenging, as their microstructu

PhD Studentship: NSF Swarf: A Novel Forging Processes for Closed Loop Recycling of Metallic Swarf

University of Warwick

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • Dr. Carl Slater

Start date – 1 st March 2027 (latest) Project Description Machining generates large quantities of swarf, with many components losing 60–90% of their material during the machining stage. This swarf is typically collected and discarded, where it becomes mixed with other grades and loses much of its inherent value. The University of Warwick has recently secured a patent for a novel forging technique in which pre-compacted swarf is heated to just below the melting point of the material and then deformed. Done correctly, this fusion bonds the material together. The route allows waste swarf to be fo

PhD Studentship: Development of a Digital Twin for Smart Sustainable Steel Section Production

University of Warwick · WMG

  • Coventry, United Kingdom
  • WMG

We are seeking a motivated and talented PhD student to work alongside our Digital Twins team within the Advanced Steel Research Centre at WMG, University of Warwick. Our Digital Twin team are developing a suite of models to deliver a through-process microstructural and mechanical property prediction framework for steel. By integrating these models into a cohesive digital twin architecture, the work will enable steel producers to rapidly predict and respond to live production conditions, supporting fast, intelligent decision-making to optimise process parameters, product performance, and operat
