The EPSRC CDT in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (NanoDTC) is now accepting proposals for short interdisciplinary projects for our incoming 1st year PhD students. Each incoming student completes two 8-week long Mini Projects (Dec-Feb and Feb-April) and a Midi project (3 months, May-Jul), before deciding on what PhD research to pursue. Hosting a student in your group for a Mini project gives you an opportunity to put exciting ideas to test, forge new collaborations or strengthen existing ones, and also interest the students in your research so that they are then more likely to come back for the full PhD project later on. The call for Midi+PhD projects will be announced later in the year, with a deadline in mid-Feb.

The deadline for project proposal submissions is Friday 20th October 2017. The application form can be downloaded here:http://www.nanodtc.cam.ac.uk/Resources/NanoDTCMiniProjectsForm )
