Prospective Graduate Students working with Dr. R.C. Woods
Unfortunately my funding for graduate students is currently fully utilized and I have no further funding available for new graduate students. Therefore I am currently able to consider accepting you as an additional graduate student only if you can confirm either that you already have (or expect to receive shortly) an independent source of funding (e.g., a scholarship for graduate study in the 91¶ÌÊÓƵ, or personal/family funds) or that you are a strong candidate for receiving University/Departmental support such as a Teaching Assistantship or research scholarship.
If you are interested in being considered, you should first make a formal application through the correct University channels, i.e. the University Graduate School, and also e-mail direct to me at my e-mail address on my home page (click below) a .PDF copy of your résumé or CV, subject line
"Independently supported graduate student application,"
together with brief text-only and clear responses to the following questions:
(a) How do you expect and intend to fund your studies
here?
(b) When did you submit your formal graduate studies application to this University?
(c) Which topics in research particularly interest you?
(d) Have you any prior experience of these
fields? Have you taken any courses in these areas? (e) What do you intend doing afterwards? How
will study in my research group prepare you for that? (f) Why particularly do you want to work with
me?
(g) From where did you find my contact
details?
Regrettably I am unable to respond to unsolicited messages concerning
Graduate Admission except from students having (or expecting soon) independent (or other Graduate/Research Assistant or Teaching Assistant) funding. You will be contacted in due course if I am able to take your application further.
Prospective Post-Doctoral
Researchers working with Dr. R.C. Woods
If you are looking for a Post-Doctoral
position you must respond to a specific advertisement or invitation. Posts in Engineering
are advertised at /departments/academicaffairs/facultyposition.html#engineering and also on nationwide position bulletin boards and I am unable to advise on the placement of
specific advertisements. I regret that I am unable to correspond on
recruitment matters until a formal application in response to a specific
advertisement has been made in accordance with the advertised application
procedure. I am unable under any circumstances to consider, comment on, or
accept applications or résumés sent directly to me by e-mail without prior
invitation or in response to a specific advertisement. |
