Course summary

To complete a postgraduate research programme, you’ll need to be dedicated and passionate about your area of study. But it’ll be well worth it. Being a doctoral student is challenging, yet incredibly rewarding. You are expected to carry out a programme of research in a particular area under the supervision of a primary supervisor and one or more co-supervisors.At its most fundamental, chemistry is the ‘art’ of transforming one molecule into another. This research group builds on the foundations laid by physicists and chemists in the 20th century, by striving to understand, model and control atomic and molecular motion in chemical reactivity. Modern experimental probes used in our group include, terahertz spectroscopy, which looks at collective molecular motions in condensed phase, as well as velocity map imaging and femtosecond spectroscopy, probing chemical reactions involving a small number of atoms with quantum state resolution and temporal resolution on the natural timescale of bond breaking. Novel computational and analytical methods for quantum dynamics are an equally important part of our work, complementing and often driving the experimental programme. Our long term research goals are to apply this knowledge to the study of much more complicated reactions and processes, building links with biology and quantum physics, as well as atmospheric and astrophysical chemistry.
