See the step-by-step guide to help complete your application. Queries may be addressed to [email protected] . You may contact individual supervisors for more details on their projects, but this is not part of the selection process.

Applicants will be reviewed on motivation, qualifications, experience, and potential to undertake a PhD. Stage 1 consists of completing the QMUL admissions application to inform us of your qualifications and relevant experience, your motivation for applying for a studentship in this Centre for Doctoral Training. Please see the step-by-step guide for further information on the application process.
Please note that we are using an anonymous application process, which means at Stage 1 shortlisting, the review panels will not view any personal data on the candidate. This is so that reviewers will not be biased (intentionally or unintentionally) by knowledge of ‘protected characteristics’ for example your age, disability, gender reassignment, sex, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief.
Applications will be reviewed, and successful candidates will be contacted by email and progress through to online interviews (Stage 2) with selected academics.
Final checks on academic qualifications, English language requirements and fee status will be made and your references will be requested before formal offers are made.
Queen Mary University of London is committed to making equality, diversity and inclusion an integral component of University life and strongly encourages applicants from all backgrounds, regardless of their personal circumstances. We particularly welcome applicants from black and ethnic minority backgrounds, as they are under-represented nationwide in STEM roles.
