  THREE FULLY FUNDED PHD STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES IN EARTH SCIENCES, PERTH,
AUSTRALIA

  Earth Dynamics Research Group, School of Earth and Planetary Sciences
Curtin University - Bentley Campus, Perth, Western Australia

The Earth Dynamics Research Group, part of the School of Earth and
Planetary Sciences at Curtin University, has three (3) available PhD
scholarships for research focussed on supercontinent cycles and global
geodynamics. Applications from candidates are invited in any of the
following projects:

  	* Palaeomagnetism [2]and supercontinent reconstruction, with an
emphasis on Precambrian supercontinents.
	* Absolute palaeointensity [3] studies in relation to supercontinent
cycles, focusing on Precambrian mafic igneous rocks in Australia and
elsewhere.
	* Development of global 4D geodynamic computer modelling [4] to
simulate and analyse interactions between plate tectonics and mantle
dynamics during supercontinent cycles.

The available positions are 3-4 years full-time (to start as soon as
possible) with the successful applicants being offered a competitive
scholarship stipend. Successful candidates will be self-reliant, have
excellent communication skills, have a demonstrated background in their
chosen topic (including laboratory and field-based work, if applicable),
and a proven ability in the dissemination of their scientific results.
More specific details on the research interests of the Earth Dynamics
Research Group and additional information on the PhD student
opportunities are available at http://geodynamics.curtin.edu.au/ [5].

The candidates will join a diverse team of researchers led by ARC
Australian Laureate Fellow Prof. Z.X. Li within the School of Earth and
Planetary Sciences [6]. Curtin University is also home to one of
Australia's leading institutions for geoscience research and has an
excellent international reputation for quality research and extensive
research infrastructure.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS:

  	* Applicants must have either 1st class Honours (or equivalent
qualification with research experience) or MSc in the Earth sciences (or
other relevant field).
	* Applicants should meet the University English Language Requirements
(available here [7]).
	* Previous experience in the chosen topic will be highly regarded.

HOW TO APPLY

To apply, please send the following to Dr. Josh Beardmore
(josh.beardmore en curtin.edu.au):

  	* your CV (with digital copies of any authored scientific
publications, if applicable),
	* details of BSc (Hons.) and/or MSc, including copies of academic
transcripts and the abstract of your thesis (if applicable),
	* a brief letter explaining your research interests and preferred
choice of project(s) (including your rationale for that choice), and
	* the names and contact details of three references that may be
contacted for a recommendation letter.

Applications are invited continuously and the positions are open until
filled. Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed, and the preferred
candidates sent offers as soon as possible.
