The School of Engineering at London South Bank University is funding 15 PhD places across four divisions, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mechanical and Design, Computer Science and Informatics, and, Petroleum and Chemical Engineering.
Applications for a three year studentship are invited from outstanding candidates domiciled in the UK with an interest in the post-war history of prosthetics technology.
The successful applicant will register for a PhD while working on an interdisciplinary project on how changes in prosthetics technology have affected the lives of amputees. This project provides an opportunity to address broad questions about engineering, technological, social and cultural change in twentieth century Britain, through detailed case study. The successful applicant will need to have excellent communication skills.
Candidates should normally hold a First or Upper Second class honours degree, plus a recognised Masters qualification in a relevant subject such as prosthetics, engineering, history of technology, or related disciplines. In certain circumstances, lower or less directly relevant qualifications supplemented by relevant work experience may be acceptable.
The studentship covers UK/EU home student tuition fees and provides an annual bursary (£15,000) for three years. Applicants whose first language is not English will be expected to prove his/her competency in English, showing an IELTS score of at least 7.0 at postgraduate level.
