Opportunities

Our work is highly interdisciplinary, crossing organic chemistry, chemical biology, and biophysics. We welcome applications from talented and motivated individuals at all levels - Part II, PhD/DPhil, postdoctoral candidates, and potential visitors. Please contact Yujia directly at yujia.qing@chem.ox.ac.uk.

DPhil and MRes

If you are interested in pursuing a DPhil or MRes in the Qing group, you can apply through the University of Oxford graduate admissions system: www.ox.ac.uk/graduate. Please note that applications must be submitted via the official system.

When applying for the DPhil or MRes in Chemistry, please indicate your interest in the Qing group so that your application can be directed to us.

Further information on graduate study and scholarship opportunities is available on the University website.

We participate in the following doctoral training programmes, which offer funding for UK and overseas applicants:

  • Oxford Inorganic Chemistry for Future Manufacturing (OxICFM CDT)
  • Interdisciplinary Life and Environmental Science Landscape Award (ILESLA)
  • Engineering Biology (Doctoral Programme)
