The Centre for Doctoral Training Science and Engineering in Arts,
Heritage and Archaeology at UCL, University of Oxford and University
of Brighton is delighted to be offering four exceptionally exciting
doctoral studentships:

Hyperspectral imaging for heritage: From books to bricks

    <URL:http://www.seaha-cdt.ac.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Oxford-Hyperspectral-SEAHA-Advert.pdf>

    This is an exciting project for candidates looking to build
    knowledge and skills in material science, spectroscopic
    techniques, product development (equipment and technique), and
    the use of non-standard software for visualising and
    interpreting hyperspectral data.  The successful candidate will
    have a first or upper-second degree in engineering, material
    science, conservation science, chemistry, physics (or related
    aspects of science and/or engineering), and a keen interest in
    cultural heritage.  Candidates with proven experience in the use
    of hyperspectral imaging in other fields may also be considered
    from disciplines such as geography, environment sciences, or
    astrophysics.  This challenging interdisciplinary project will
    enable you to seek employment in any number of multidisciplinary
    environments: from academia to industry. Application Deadline: 1
    March 2015.

The UK EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Science and Engineering
in Arts, Heritage and Archaeology (SEAHA) is an 8-year initiative
(2014-2022) to establish an infrastructure to meet challenges set by
the heritage sector, industry and government.  Working with heritage
and industry partners, SEAHA students will create, innovate or use
sensors, instrumentation, imaging, digital and creative technologies
to improve our understanding of heritage, to develop science and
engineering capabilities and to benefit the economy.
