Doctoral candidates may pursue their research within one of the participating research training groups or work independently under supervision from a BGTS scientist. The programme accepts applications on a rolling basis; prospective applicants should consult the websites of the participating structured research programmes for current information on open positions, admission requirements, and language requirements.
