Jobs, fellowships and graduate study

Graduate study

Around October each year we usually advertise a number of DPhil projects on the University's astrophysics graduate admissions pages. Those pages also explain the application procedure. We welcome informal enquiries from prospective students: contact James Binney or John Magorrian.

Recent DPhil theses

Here are some of the theses from our group that are available from the University's research archive:

• Ralf Donner, Numerical methods of resonant dynamics for the Galaxy (2005)
• Andy Eyre, On the dynamics of tidal streams in the Milky Way galaxy (2010)
• Francesco Fermani, Modelling the Milky Way stellar halo (2013)
• Jason Sanders, Dynamics of the Milky Way: tidal streams and extended distribution functions for the galactic disc (2014)
• Mattia Sormani, Understanding the large-scale dynamics of the interstellar medium in barred galaxies (2015)

Postdoctoral fellowships

We have no postdoctoral positions on offer at present, but please contact us if you are interested in applying for an externally funded fellowship to work here.
