EPSRC and UKRI AI Centres for Doctoral Training (CDT)
EPSRC and UKRI AI Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs) provide four year PhD programmes within a specific area of research. The centres, hosted by departments across the School of Technology and the Physical Sciences, include comprehensive formal training, alongside the PhD research project. Each centre will recruit approximately 10 students every year and most, if not all, places come with full funding.
In March 2024, the University was successful in securing EPSRC funding for two CDTs, and is a partner in six other successful bids led by other partner universities.
Current CDTs include:
- Future Infrastructure and Built Environment: unlocking net-zero
- Sensor Technologies and Applications in an Uncertain World
- Aerosol Science - led by the University of Bristol
- Decision making for complex systems - led by the University of Manchester
- Developing National Capability for Materials 4.0 - with the Henry Royce Institute
- Photonic and Electron Systems – led by University College London
- Superconductivity: Enabling Transformative Technologies – led by the University of Bristol
- 2D Materials of Tomorrow - led by the University of Manchester
