How to apply for a PhD

If you are applying to an advertised studentship or programme, please follow the instructions on the relevant advert. Opportunities will be advertised when they become available, and this may be at any time of year. We recommend as the most up to date source of information (search "Sussex Neuroscience"). 

For general information about PhD availability, start by looking at the work of the groups in the different research themes on this site. If you find a group that is working on the types of question that might interest you, note whether the Group Leader belongs to a School within the ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ (Life Sciences, Psychology or Informatics), or to the Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS), as the application process differs.
