Who is this support for?
We're seeking submissions from PhD supervisors for proposed PhD projects.
What does FDRI PhD support include?
- Access to infrastructure in FDRI's catchments (learn about these here)
- Training and placements
- Expertise and access to co-supervisors across the FDRI team
- £5,000 on-off payment towards PhD studentships
These initial PhD projects will take place while our monitoring infrastructure is being designed and installed.
What is the deadline?
- For Project Investigators developing PhD proposals that would be advertised in Autumn 2026 and start in September 2027, please complete and return the application form.
- We also welcome applications and expressions of interest throughout the year. FDRI can support PhD projects at different stages, including new proposals, projects with a student already identified and due to start, or existing PhDs.
Are there any restrictions?
- Proposed projects must include input from someone affiliated with FDRI (this could be co-supervision or more general input and support). Full details can be found in the application form.
- If you have any questions, would like to discuss a collaborative PhD project or an existing funded PhD that aligns with FDRI, please get in touch at fdri@ceh.ac.uk.
