Fully Funded PhD award in Engineering for EU, UK, and International Students

Outsourcing, Performance Management and Assets Management

Understanding government outsourcing and value for money

Performance measurement in the public/private sector – understanding effectiveness of methods/frameworks in public and private sector organisations

Asset pricing issues – (factor investing, bubble detection, mispricing of stocks during economic uncertainties, financialisation of commodities and precious metals, risk and return)

Benefits of joining this project

This project provides an excellent opportunity for students to dig into the realm of wind energy from a holistic perspective. The incorporation of data-driven techniques, such as machine learning approaches, will enrich the scope of the project.

Students engaged in this project will potentially have the chance to collaborate with industry partners in the wind energy sector, gaining valuable practical experience and fostering connections within the industry.

Application Procedure:

You should apply for Engineering (PhD) to ensure your application is passed to the correct team for processing.

Please clearly note the name of the lead supervisor and project title on the application form. If you do not include these details, it may not be considered for the studentship.

ESRC North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (NWSSDTP)

The North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership is one of fourteen DTPs in the UK, created by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC).

The NWSSDTP comprises the Universities of Liverpool, Keele, Lancaster, Manchester, and Central Lancashire, and provides Master’s and PhD students with access to funding and quality research training in social science disciplines.

Candidates will need to meet the following entry requirements for the programme: 

Normally a UK 2.1 Honours degree (or equivalent qualification acceptable to the University) and a UK Master’s degree in a relevant discipline with a final result of at least 60% (or equivalent qualification acceptable to the University). 
 

In cases where students have not completed a Master’s degree, applications may be considered where students hold a first-class UG degree from a high-ranking, research-focused university and have demonstrated an ability to conduct academic research.
