Research in our School of Life Sciences covers a wide spectrum of biology from genes to ecosystems, and this broad-based structure provides opportunities for developing novel ideas and interdisciplinary projects. We offer supervision in a wide range of topics in microbiology, ranging from medical microbiology to environmental microbiology, and from biochemical and genomic analysis of single species to whole communities. As a research student at Essex, you work at the heart of our internationally acknowledged, well-resourced and well-connected research community. We offer world-class supervision and training opportunities, and encourage you to engage with other researchers, professionals, practitioners, and research users, where possible - such as using the generous funding from Proficio to attend conferences and training courses. We also offer an MSD in this area. Both part-time and full-time research study are available. You can start this degree in October, January or April.
This module is for PhD students who are completing the research portions of their thesis.
