PhD in Applied Chemistry

The School of Science has expertise in molecular modelling, chemo-metrics and micrometeorology that has found applications spanning multiple research fields.

Under expert supervision, you will join researchers already active in:

• analytical chemistry (metabolomics, natural products extraction and identification)
  
  
• separation science (focus on gas and liquid chromatography), flow injection analysis and mass spectrometry
  
  
• environmental analysis (air, soil and water quality; environmental contamination; biosolids; environmental toxicology)
  
  
• physical and materials chemistry (organic and inorganic synthesis, colloidal chemistry, functional surfaces, micro- and nano-technologies, nano-biotechnology, electrochemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis)
  
  
• interdisciplinary ecosystem restoration.

This PhD may be undertaken in a project, thesis with publication or thesis mode. Prospective candidates should discuss these modes of submission with their potential supervisors.
