Warwick Business School ESRC Case PhD Studentship 2011
Sep 03One of the under-researched effects of higher education expansion in the last two decades has been increasing recruitment of graduates by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and to sectors of economic activity and occupations to which previously, undergraduate study had not been a normal route. A key strategic objective of UK government higher education and training policies and investment during the last 25 years has been to raise workforce skills levels on the assumption that this would have economic and social benefits and indeed, was essential for economic growth, innovation and national productivity in an increasingly competitive global economy. An integral aspect of the expansion of higher education was to widen access to it from previously under-represented groups and extend opportunities to socially and economically disadvantaged sections of the population.
PhD Studentship in Finite Element Simulations of Microsensors, University of Waterloo, Canada
Sep 03Microsensor R&D benefits to a great extent from finite element simulations because design variations can be characterized on a computer. This is highly relevant to our industrial partners. We need a new graduate student to help us with thermal and mechanical simulations of microsensors integrated on silicon chips, used for joining process studies for the microelectronic industry.
Requirements:
- university degree in engineering or science .
- good grasp of basic laws of physics .
- strong communication skills.

Monash University Fully Funded PhD Studentship in Synthetic Organic Chemistry
Sep 01We seek an outstanding PhD candidate with a background in synthetic organic chemistry to develop a new class of dendritic molecules, and to study their applications. The position is fully funded, both fees and stipend, for four years.
Project description
The successful candidate will investigate a new method for the synthesis of a library of dendrimers with variations in the sizes and shapes of the monomers, and of the strength and character of the forces between them. One aim of the project is to make dendrimers carrying a variety of functionality, and with the flexibility of the synthetic strategy, engineer the molecules for solubility, surface activity, and assembly into larger structures.
