Whether you’re looking to begin an academic career or want to develop your skills and expertise for a career in industry, studying for a PhD will be a journey that will stimulate your passion for your subject and push you to reach your potential. As a postgraduate researcher, you’ll have the opportunity to attend a number of workshops offered by the University and our dedicated researcher training and development hub.Our research considers pollutants and microorganisms in air, waste, land and water with a strong emphasis on the interrelationships between energy, sustainability, public health and environmental impact. We conduct experimental and computational studies to understand sources and exposure routes, and how the infrastructure we design, build and operate influences risks. We are interested in technical solutions and how these interface with human, economic, social and political systems. Much of our work is interdisciplinary, bringing engineering together with societal and economic factors.
