PhD Science and Technology Policy Studies

From science and technology capability building in developing countries to policy and regulation in energy and high technology industries to rethinking sustainable development – our current research projects fall under three main headings:

• Governance and Sustainability
• Innovation in Firms and Industries
• National and International Science and Technology Systems.

At SPRU – Science Policy Research Unit, you’ll work with internationally recognised experts employing an issue-focused interdisciplinary approach to innovation and industrial policy.

For a PhD, your research work makes a substantial original contribution to knowledge or understanding in your chosen field.
