Find a PhD Project

The Graduate School of the National Oceanography Centre Southampton (GSNOCS) is a centre of research excellence. We are a large, international, scientifically diverse and genuinely interdisciplinary community with about 200 PhD students with backgrounds in biology, chemistry, computer science, Earth science, engineering, environmental sciences, geography, geology, geophysics, mathematics, meteorology, natural sciences, oceanography and physics. 

I chose University of Southampton for my PhD because of its international research reputation. I am working alongside researchers who are world leaders in their field, and gaining a really solid foundation for a future academic career.

This website lists all projects based at the National Oceanography Centre Southampton. If you are interested in projects in the INSPIRE DTP, regardless of where based, please see the INSPIRE projects list instead.

Most recruitment for this year (Sep 2020 start) has finished. Projects for Sep 2021 start will be advertised in October. A few projects start at other times of year.
