Project supervisor – Dr Temitope Alade

Are you ready to redefine the foundations of wireless connectivity? As we approach the sixth generation (6G) mobile communication era, traditional communication systems are hitting the Shannon Limit. Simply increasing bandwidth is no longer sustainable due to increasing energy and complexity constraints. This project offers a bold alternative by bridging the gap between cutting-edge Generative AI and Wireless Communications: Semantic Communication powered by...

We recommend that you apply early as the advert may be removed before the de...

Jochen Blumberger at the Condensed Matter and Materials Physics Laboratory, University College London, UK.

Interested candidates may want to work on one of the following two projects.

Project 1: Machine Learning Molecular Dynamics.

The project involves the** development and application of machine learning methods that enable a major boost of the time and length scales accessible to ab-initio/first principles molecular dynamics simulations.** You will contribute to the development of novel work flow...

Large-scale wind turbines, specifically located offshore, present very specific technical challenges. Structural design and optimisation of performance in energy conversion are dependent on a correct estimation of the effects of flow, but scale and interaction between devices have a significant impact.

In this project you will work on and develop numerical modelling capabilities for arrays of turbines with non-homogeneous flows and wake effects. The modelling technology will be leveraged to devel...

University College London (UCL) is a globally recognised university with a strong reputation for academic excellence, innovation, and real-world impact. UCL Mechanical Engineering conducts high-quality research across healthcare technologies, sustainable fuels, green energy, and advanced manufacturing. In the Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014), over 90% of the department’s research was rated world-leading or internationally excellent. Doctoral researchers benefit from access to advanced la...

The global need for researchers with capabilities in materials chemistry, digital intelligence and automation is intensifying because of the growing challenge posed by Net Zero and the need for high-performance materials across multiple sectors. The disruptive nature of recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and emerging quantum computing offers timely and exciting opportunities for PhD graduates with these skills to make a transformative impact on both R&D and society more b...

Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance.

Applications are invited for an experimental researcher post available from July 2026 for 2 years. The researcher will be part of the NanoPhotonics group, which looks at nanoscale assembly and NanoPhotonics interactions. The candidate will join a dynamic and diverse team that values collaboration. The role holder will develop novel infrared spectroscopy on self-assembled plasmonic nanocavities to study nonlinear ...

The rapid adoption of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technologies has transformed manufacturing, offering greater efficiency, real-time monitoring, and data-driven decision-making. However, this interconnectivity introduces significant cybersecurity vulnerabilities, leaving systems exposed to cyber-attacks. Traditional intrusion detection systems (IDS) often fall short in handling the real-time, large-scale data demands of IIoT and lack sustainability considerations, such as energy efficie...

This is a four-year (1+3 MRes/PhD) studentship funded through the Cambridge EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Infrastructure and Built Environment: Unlocking Net Zero (FIBE3 CDT). Further details can be found at https://www.net-zero-fibe-cdt.eng.cam.ac.uk/.

The project is funded in collaboration with Ward & Burke, a leading engineering firm specialising in the design, manufacture, supply, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of water and wastewater infrastructure with...

A fully funded PhD studentship (for home/international students; European applicants are strongly encouraged to apply) at the University of Manchester, delivered in collaboration with Jungbunzlauer, a global leader in producing naturally derived, biodegradable ingredients that enhance everyday life. With more than 150 years of expertise, the company combines science-driven innovation with a strong commitment to sustainability. This is a hands-on industrial project, driven by Jungbunzlauer’s comm...

As part of the Graduate Initiative for "Energy and Industry of the Future" ((GI EIF)), UCBL has launched a scholarship campaign for students from outside France who wish to enroll in the 2nd year of mechanical engineering, and to pursue a research program via an internship at LMFA on the topic "Air Trumpets".

Eligibility : M1 from outside France. Also, the scholarship requires registration at the UCBL (Lyon) Master M2 MFE : Fluid Mechanics and Energetic for academic year 2026-2027. The internship...

The UK’s railway bridge asset stock represents over 80% well-aged (>50 years) infrastructure, often carrying loads beyond their original design capacity, hence in urgent need of a reliable real-time damage identification system. The current practice of visual inspection of bridges can be subjective and exposes the workforce to hazardous job sites. In recent years, there have been significant efforts in instrumenting bridges and assessing the condition of the bridge using direct measurements. The...
