RMIT Dual PhD Programme
The University of Bristol and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) signed a Cotutelle agreement in 2020, providing opportunities for students to undertake doctoral research across both institutions.
RMIT has a world-class academic reputation, and this collaboration provides students with the opportunity to access to their extensive global network of institutional partnerships.
RMIT has three campuses and two sites in Australia, two campuses in Vietnam and a research and industry collaboration centre in Spain.
They also offer a number of programs through partners in Singapore, Hong Kong, mainland China, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Belgium, Germany, Austria and the Netherlands.
Students are co-supervised and co-enrolled, and are expected to spend time at each institution.
Two Dual-PhD projects have been initiated in the areas of Aerospace Engineering, supported by funding from the Engineering and Physical Research Sciences Council.
