PhD in Applied Physics in the Physical and Geological Sciences Group, Faculty of Science (FOS), is a programme that fosters pure and applied advanced research in various areas of physics. PhD in Applied Physics includes conducting original projects with an international research impact, which incorporate modern techniques and methods, in a broad range of pure and applied research topics. Candidates are expected to work diligently and they should be able to perform integrated research under the supervision of Applied Physics staff members. They should be able to carry out analytical and experimental research and to collect and interpret the relevant data in a timely manner. The PhD candidates must also participate actively in research team meetings, as well as in symposia and conferences. The programme is designed for qualified individuals, who wish to acquire advanced knowledge, as well as analytical and research skills in a discipline of Applied Physics related to Industry or Academia. Moreover, our staff members have established research collaboration with other institutes from Europe and America and the involvement of students in such is highly encouraged.
Aims and Scope
The PhD Programme in Applied Physics aims to make scientists with high level specialised training, in order to cover the increased needs of Industry, Research Institutions and Academia in related aspects. The scope of the Programme is to educate students to become independent researchers, as well as to train them to develop advanced scientific skills and analytical capabilities. The candidates are also expected to become capable of designing scientific projects, to develop independent critical thinking and ability for proper scientific interpretations.
Structure
Students conduct an approved, original research project, with the supervision of one or more staff members. Upon completion of their research, they submit a thesis, which normally does not exceed 100,000 words.
