Fully Funded PhD in Isotope Geochemistry and Geochronology at Curtin University Curtin University in Australia

Fully funded PhD opportunity in isotope geochemistry and geochronology at Curtin University, Australia.

This project is part of an ARC DECRA-funded research program led by Dr Janne Liebmann in the School of Earth and Planetary Sciences. The research focuses on understanding Earth’s crustal evolution, mineral systems, and the timing/processes of crust formation using integrated isotope geochemistry and geochronology.

Research areas and keywords: isotope geochemistry, geochronology, geology, geochemistry, petrology, mineral systems, igneous systems, metamorphic systems, continental crust evolution, Earth history.

What the PhD offers: tuition fee coverage, stipend, research support, access to world-class analytical facilities, fieldwork opportunities across Australia, international collaborations, and advanced research training.

Eligibility: candidates with backgrounds in geology, geochemistry, petrology, geochronology, mineral systems, or related Earth science disciplines are encouraged to apply. A strong interest in isotopes, rocks, and Earth’s history is highlighted.

Deadline: 15 June 2026, or until filled.
