Tom Goffrey

A fully funded PhD position is available at the University of Warwick as part of the first cohort of the NQCC Doctoral Studentship Scheme. The research focuses on quantum algorithms for fusion and plasma physics, integrating quantum computation and quantum information science with advanced simulations in plasma physics. The project is co-supervised by Professors Animesh Datta and Tom Goffrey, both affiliated with the University of Warwick. Applicants should possess a strong background in linear algebra and differential equations and be motivated to work at the intersection of quantum computing and physical simulations. Funding is provided through the EPSRC Industrial Doctoral Landscape Awards (IDLA) and covers both stipend and tuition for UK and international students. Additional scholarships may be available for outstanding candidates. The application deadline is December 19, 2025. Interested candidates should review the project details and follow the application instructions provided in the linked resources. This opportunity is ideal for students passionate about quantum technologies and their application to fusion energy science and plasma physics.
