Thread: PhD opportunities in Singapore (sea-level change, coastal hazards, subduction earthquake geology)

Fully-funded PhD opportunities are available in the Asian School of the Environment http://ase.ntu.edu.sg/ and the Earth Observatory of Singapore http://earthobservatory.sg/, at Nanyang Technological University http://ntu.edu.sg/, in Singapore.

Our focus is on natural hazards in Southeast Asia, and these PhD opportunities will involve aspects of regional geological research and/or modeling of geological data.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
sea-level change
coastal hazards
earthquake geology and neotectonics (with emphasis on subduction zones of Southeast Asia)

There are two intakes of PhD students annually, in January and in August. The deadline for the submission of applications is 31st January for the August intake, and 31st July for the following January intake.

We strongly encourage those interested to contact potential faculty advisors prior to applying.
