FindAPhD
FindAPhD is a web database for doctoral study opportunities, including PhD programmes, research projects and other postgraduate research listings. Students can search and compare qualifications, then consult funding and advice sections. Filters cover discipline, location, institution, PhD type, funding and latest listings. A free account lets students save favourite projects, track enquiries and receive personalised subject updates; email subscriptions provide PhD opportunities and studentship information. PhD Supervisor Search helps prospective students discover an academic supervisor by research interest and is included with an Institution Profile at no additional cost. The service is free for students, while universities and educational institutions can buy listings and promotional products. FindAPhD also offers the free PhD CONNECT integration for adding listings to another website. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Sheffield, United Kingdom, it is published by FindAUniversity Ltd.
