Glasgow Doctoral School in Emerging Technologies (GD-SET)

All of our 3.5 year doctoral projects are in collaboration with high-tech industrial partners.

Glasgow-Maxwell School (GlaMS)

GlaMS pioneers training across the breadth of algebraic methods in mathematics, including Algebra, Geometry and Topology, and Mathematical Physics. We fuse algebraic methodology and expertise, building new algebraic structures both in mathematical abstraction and with a view to new applications.

IAPETUS

IAPETUS is a partnership that joins leading research universities together with the British Geological Survey and the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, in a unified approach to doctoral research and training the next generation of leaders in the science of the natural environment.

Industry-Inspired Photonic Imaging, Sensing and Analysis

The centre will produce future business-oriented research leaders who are fluent in the concepts and methodologies of photonic sensing, imaging and analysis, enabling them to innovate and collaborate across all these areas. 

Industrial Partnership

PhDs with innovation through collaboration. Industry and academics work on projects at every biological level for both business development and research advancement. Benefits include, new product development, testing new technology and evaluating drug based therapies.

NorthWestBio

• Research expertise in sustainable agriculture and food, healthy ageing and the development of new pharmaceuticals.  Collaboration among our partners will nurture entrepreneurship, innovation and training. To produce broadly skilled and highly employable bioscientists.

Intelligent Sensing and Measurement

Sensing and measurement have revolutionised areas as diverse as transport, biomedicine, agriculture and environmental monitoring, creating a global demand for cross-disciplinary researchers in this field. 

Photonics and Advanced Data Storage (PIADS)

PIADS aims to tackle some of the challenges created by the increasing quantities of data generated by today's society. The Centre's focus is on developing highly-manufacturable photonic integration technologies related to the magnetic storage of digital information. 

MRC Precision Medicine

PhD with Integrated Study studentships funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC), in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh and the Karolinska Institute. This programme supports research training at the interfaces between biological, clinical, societal and computational systems.

Scottish Graduate School of Social Science

We are the UK's largest facilitator of funding, training and support for doctoral students in social science. By combining the expertise of sixteen universities across Scotland, the school facilitates world-class PhD research.

Scottish Graduate School for the Arts and Humanities

SGSAH is home to the AHRC Doctoral Training Partnership for Scotland. Working with our supporters in the arts, culture, creative and heritage sectors, we support positive connections and productive networks locally, regionally and globally to provide outstanding opportunities for doctoral researchers in Scotland.

Social AI

We develop the next generation of experts in artificial social intelligence. Students will be trained in human-computer interaction and machine learning, by specialists in psychology, social sciences, ethics and neuroscience.

Wellcome Trust PhD programme

Our fully funded PhD programme will equip you to tackle complex challenges to global health and infectious disease.
