Do I need to apply for 3 projects?Yes you must apply to three projects. We recommend you contact the supervisors before submitting your application to discuss their research in more detail and inform your decision. If you are shortlisted to the interview stage, you will be asked to rank projects in order of preference. Not all candidates are offered their first choice of project and you may be offered your second or third choice.
-
Do all 3 projects have to be based at the same institution?No, you can apply for any combination of 3 projects, regardless of the institution at which these are based.
-
Do all three projects use the same application form?Yes. You should apply to DiMeN with only one application form - select three projects from the dropdown tool.

When can I expect to hear if I have been shortlisted for interview?We will be holding interviews online between 24th and 28th February 2025 and aim to contact shortlisted candidates by 3rd February. We typically receive over 700 applications to DiMeN and therefore it can take some time for non-shortlisted candidates to receive an individual formal rejection. However, we will post more general updates on the DiMeN website during the selection process so please check for new information.

I am having problems with the application portal - what do I do?If you are having issues try switching to a different browser such as Chrome. The application portal is managed by the University of Sheffield - please contact our admission team using the chat function on the prospective students page with any queries.
-
Can I study for a DiMeN PhD part time?Some projects are feasible part-time, however not all of them due to the specific experimental work commitments and you would need to discuss this as an option with the supervisory team before applying. International students must also consider UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) restrictions and contact the host university international office for advice. Part-time study can only be at 50% of full time, so our 4 year programme would be spread over 8 years and stipend funding at 50% per payment. This has implications on Council tax as part-time students are no longer exempt. It is possible to switch to part-time during your PhD according to personal circumstances and this is reviewed locally, on a case-by-case basis.
-
Can I apply as an international student?We accept applications from international students, however there is a 30% cap on places for international students on our programme. Fees are covered for international fee status students but candidates are required to meet all visa, healthcare surcharges, and relocation costs. You can find out more about fee status here.
