About this position
PhD studentship at the University of Sussex in the School of Mathematical & Physical Sciences on the co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes since cosmic noon, with a focus on PRIMA, XID+, galaxy evolution, star formation, AGN activity, and far-infrared/sub-mm data analysis.
The project is supervised by Prof. Seb Oliver and is based in Brighton, United Kingdom. It develops the XID+ modelling methodology to disentangle blended emission from multiple galaxies, extend hyperspectral imaging and spectroscopy analysis for PRIMA, and test methods on state-of-the-art galaxy evolution simulations. The research also uses current datasets from JWST, Euclid, ALMA, Herschel, and SCUBA-2.
This is a competition funded PhD project for students worldwide. Funding includes full tuition for 3.5 years, a tax-free living bursary of £21,805 per year in 2026/27, and additional travel support. The post is linked to STFC funding and UKRI PGR benefits.
Applicants should apply for the PhD in Astronomy with an entry date of September 2026. The page notes that previous applicants must apply again. Applications received by the deadline will be fully considered, and late applications may be reviewed until the position is filled.
