EngD
Introduction
The 4-year Engineering Doctorate (EngD) course is often described as a “PhD+”, and the aim of the EngD programme in "Molecular Modelling and Materials Science'' (M3S) is to train graduate students to PhD standard in the key area of the application of computer modelling techniques to materials research.
The course contains a taught element at Masters level, which is usually completed by the student (Research Engineer - RE) within the first two years of the programme, and in addition the RE undertakes a doctoral research project with the industrial sponsor.
Background
The Industrial Doctorate Centre in Molecular Modelling and Materials Science (M3S IDC) at University College London is funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and Industry to combine rigorous training with research excellence in an integrated four-year doctoral degree programme in partnership with a range of external collaborators.
More information can be found on the Industrial Doctorate Centre in Molecular Modelling and Materials Science website.
Programme Structure
The M3S EngD programme comprises a taught course, incorporating both research project and literature review and Project Management and Personal Development in Practice (PDP) programmes, and a doctoral research programme.
