Sir Walter Hartley Scholarship

Funded PhD opportunity in Inorganic / Solid-State Chemistry at University College Dublin. The new Gabilondo group in the UCD School of Chemistry is recruiting a PhD student for a 4-year studentship focused on the synthetic discovery of metastable, crystalline semiconductors, the study of their formation pathways, and the investigation of their optical and electronic properties. The research is aimed at new functional materials with potential applications in solar-driven photocatalysis and non-li...

Tyndall National Institute in Ireland is advertising a PhD scholarship in novel electro-optic materials and integrated photonic devices for high-speed optical communications . The project sits within Tyndall’s deep-tech research environment and the Rinn Semiconductors network, with a strong focus on photonics, semiconductor research, and advanced integration. The research aims to discover and tailor new electro-optic materials for the O-band (1300 nm), supporting energy-efficient, ultra-fast opt...

Fully funded PhD opportunity in Polymer Engineering , Polymer Science , Chemistry , Materials Science , and Chemical Engineering at the PRISM Research Institute , Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) , Athlone, Ireland. The project, SulphGuard , focuses on developing sulphur-based, animal-repelling and nutrient-releasing biodegradable polymers for sustainable livestock fencing solutions.
