The soil ecology group at the University of Adelaide, Australia is actively recruiting new PhD students. A number of opportunities to undertake a PhD in the group exist. Scholarships for both tuition and living expenses (stipend) are available for suitably qualified applicants. A typical PhD is completed in Australia in 3 to 3.5 years. With the soil ecology group based at the largest agricultural research institute in the southern hemisphere, the opportunities for world class PhD experience in soil ecology, in a desirable location, are available.A number of projects covering various aspects of soil ecology are available. Our research uses cutting edge techniques in real world settings. We use genomic, biological and physicochemical techniques in the laboratory, glasshouse and on-farm, in an effort to make a fundamental contribution to scientific knowledge, while achieving real world impact. Details of specific projects are available upon request.For further details, please contact A/Prof. Tim Cavagnaro at timothy.cavagnaro@adelaide.edu.au or visit our web page (soil ecology.org).
