Doctor of Engineering in Medical Devices ( EngD)

We are currently recruiting graduates in Engineering or the Physical Sciences for October 2008 who have obtained, or expect to obtain, a first or upper second class honours degree to join the Medical Devices Doctoral Training Centre at the University of Strathclyde which was established in 2003 from funding provided by the EPSRC Life Sciences Interface. The centre trains graduate students, providing them with the opportunity to work with medical companies and clinical groups in state of the art research projects to develop new medical devices and related technologies. The students of the centre will have the opportunity to work on projects with a high degree of relevance to the clinicians, patients and medical companies who will be the end users of such research.

Graduates accepted for the centre who are UK citizens will receive a four-year studentship covering living expenses and fees. EU citizens who have been resident in the UK for 3 years or more are also eligible for the full studentship. Fees only support is available for other EU citizens.
