If you choose to carry out your postgraduate studies with us, you will become part of a vibrant, forward-thinking research community.
Applications to the Aura CDT will reopen in Autumn 2020 to recruit for Cohort 3 who will begin studying in September 2021.
Each year, we offer up to 20 Core Scholarships, comprising funding for first-year PG-Dip training, during which students develop their research proposal. Followed by three years full time PhD research at one of the partner institutions.
We also work closely with key offshore wind sector organisations to develop funded Industry Partner Scholarships. Students on this pathway take their PG-Dip year with the rest of the cohort before embarking on a 3-year PhD at a specified institution, supported by their Industry sponsor. Recent examples were the seven Industry Scholarships in conjunction with the ORE Catapult and with Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy which were open to applicants to Cohort 2.
Part-time study is possible for UK/EU students, for more information please contact us directly at auracdt@hull.ac.uk.
