The University of St Andrews is pleased to offer a Global PhD Scholarship in Applied Mathematics (Solar Physics) 2021 whcih is funded by St Leonard’s Postgraduate College, to support an exceptional student undertaking doctoral research in the following project: Computational Analysis of the Wave Energy Budget in the Solar Atmosphere. As a doctoral student at the University of St Andrews you will be part of a growing, vibrant, and intellectually stimulating postgraduate community. St Andrews is one of the leading research-intensive universities in the world and offers a postgraduate experience of remarkable richness.
Project Description:
This project will focus on computational modelling of MHD waves in the solar atmosphere. Recent high-cadence and high-resolution observations have revealed an abundance of  waves, oscillations and other quasi-periodic disturbances present in the solar atmosphere. This project aims to improve our understanding of the MHD wave energy budget in the solar atmosphere by using 3D MHD simulations to guide the interpretation of observations.
Eligibility criteria for the Global PhD Scholarship in Applied Mathematics (Solar Physics) 2021:

Applicants from all nationalities are eligible for this program.
Applicants must not already hold a doctoral degree.
Applicants must not already be matriculated for a doctoral degree at the University of St Andrews or another institution.

Value of the Global PhD Scholarship in Applied Mathematics (Solar Physics) 2021:
The award covers full tuition fees for the period of time spent at the University of St Andrews.

For this period, the student will also receive a stipend payable at the standard UK Research council rate (the 2021-22 annual rate is £15,560).
For the period spent at the University of Oslo the student will receive a full fee award and salary.

Duration of the Global PhD Scholarship in Applied Mathematics (Solar Physics) 2021:
