Have a look through my webpages and identify a topic that you find particularly appealing (or, better still, come up with your own idea).
Then, you should email me your CV, as well as a 3 page project proposal which discusses:
- Your research capacity and strengths.
- What you would like to work on as a research project.
- How you see your strengths as contributing to your proposed project.
