We offer Phds supervised by experienced and expert staff in all of our subject areas. We're proud of the key contributions made by research students to our achievements.

We explore the complex and challenging interrelationships between human behaviours; technologies; and biological, environmental and aquatic systems. From fighting world hunger to preserving bees, our interdisciplinary research makes a positive difference to society and has a real impact on shaping government policy.
