The Environmental Processes and Soil Microbial Ecology Labs at the University of Warwick are currently offering PhD studentships through the BBSRC-funded Midlands Doctoral Training Partnership (MIBTP) and through the NERC-funded Central England NERC Training Alliance (CENTA). These studentships will begin October 2023.

 

We are also excited to support outstanding applicants for other funding opportunities, including the the Warwick Chancellor's International Scholarship, China Scholarship Council- University of Warwick Scholarships, and the Monash Warwick Alliance Joint PhD Scholarships.
