PhD opportunities
If you’re interested in geomorphology, glacial and river processes, climate change, or advanced numerical modelling, check out these exciting PhD projects:
ExaGEO and IAPETUS2 programs
These are fully-funded, competitive PhD opportunities.
ExaGEO DLA
-
Understanding the Impacts of Extreme Climate Variability on Glaciated Landscapes
-
GPU-Accelerated Global-scale Modelling of Soil Production and Landscape Evolution
-
Data-Driven and Physics-Informed Hybrid Modelling of Landslide Dynamics
For detailed project descriptions, please search the project titles on this page. The application deadline is 31 January 2027.
IAPETUS DTP
- Sediment release from glacial valleys in a changing climate: Interactions between valley morphology, sediment dynamics, and climate variations
Please refer to this link for further details. Please note that international applicants must contact me before 7 December 2026, and the application deadline is 5 January 2027
College Scholarship at the University of Glasgow
The School of Geographical and Earth Sciences usually offers one or two College PhD Scholarships each year. Please see this link for further details about the scholarship, and I am happy to discuss potential PhD projects with students who intend to apply.
Other externally funded opportunities
I am always happy to discuss potential PhD projects with students who have or intend to apply for external funding (China’s CSC Scholarship, for example). Please get in touch if you have a research idea related to the broad theme of interactions between climate and Earth surface processes.
