How to become a member of the CCRG?
If you work on catchments, coasts or both, or you’re simply interested in expanding your knowledge in this area and want to learn more about the possibilities of working with the Catchments and Coasts Research Group, then consider joining CCRG using the link below. We welcome researchers, stakeholders of any career stage.
List of potential Master by Research projects
The following list provides an overview of possible research projects that our CCRG academics are happy to supervise. If you are interested in any of these topics, please contact the academic via email (find staff email address on UoL staff directory. Please note that unless specifically stated all of these projects are for self-funded students, i.e. tuition fees (as advertised on UoL website) and research expenses must be covered to 100% by the research student.
