Pt II Students: The Davis Group usually takes on four Pt II students each academic year. Projects are offered across a range of imaging, sensing, nanotech arenas.  Most of the groups projects generate first class marks and a number of Thesis Prizes have been awarded in recent years.

Prospective Pt II students are invited to learn more of the research carried out in the group by attending departmental open days or by contacting Jason Davis directly.

 

Summer Students: The Nuffield Foundation offers summer bursaries for students usually in their penultimate undergraduate year to undertake up to 8 weeks paid research in an academic lab. Dr Davis is happy to discuss potential projects.
