PhD Studentships in Experimental Particle Physics at University of Sussex (2024)
The University of Sussex Experimental Particle Physics group plays a critically important role in a number of experiments at the frontiers of our knowledge of particle physics, with main involvement in: the ATLAS experiment and its upgrades and FASER(2) at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, the SNO+ neutrinoless double beta decay experiment at SNOLAB (Canada), and the NOvA, DUNE, and SBND neutrino oscillation experiments at Fermilab (USA). The group is also very active in detector development R&D for future experiments.
What you get
Funding is available for studentships in all of our research areas for a September 2024 start which includes a tax-free bursary (£18,622 per annum in 2023/24) and fees for 3.5 years at the home-student level. Additional financial support is provided to cover short-term and long-term travel. Interviews of shortlisted candidates will be held in February and March initially and will continue until positions are filled. Applications from self-funded students interested in our research are also welcome at any time of the year.
