Overview

A wide range of projects will be available using advanced molecular modelling techniques to determine structures and mechanisms of catalytic processes at the molecular level. There will be a strong emphasis on heterogeneous catalysis and the computational projects will be closely linked with experiment within Cardiff and elsewhere.

Eligible candidates should have, or expect to obtain, a degree in Chemistry or a closely related discipline. Highly motivated and dedicated students will gain a thorough training in computational chemistry and materials science and be rewarded with a highly stimulating project that will shape the future of this exciting research program.
