An exciting new PhD programme: UNRISK CDT.
The UNRISK Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) will train students with the multidisciplinary knowledge and skills across climate science, data science, and decision science to tackle the pressing challenge of reducing the risks associated with rapid climate change.
Over the course of three years, 40 PhD students will be fully funded and provided with expert training.
UNRISK PhD students will benefit from:
- Exciting research projects at the University of Leeds, University College London, and the University of Exeter aimed at improving climate change predictions, understanding its impacts, and providing the best possible information to improve decision-making.
- Training in skills and competencies sought by employers, including climate science, data science and decision science.
- Involvement of over thirty industry partners including climate prediction centres, consultancies, regulatory bodies and AI start-ups.
- A collaborative cohort approach working with and learning from other students tackling a common challenge.
Details on the application process as well as a full list of PhD projects can be found on the UNRISK website. Contact @email with any questions.
