Prospective students

Please email ehinton@unimelb.edu.au if you are interested in undertaking graduate research with me in one of my research interests.

Some possible avenues are:

For undergraduates: SCIE30001 projects and Vacation Scholarships

For MSc students: apply for the Master of Science and then find a supervisor.

For PhD students: scholarships are available for excellent students.

I also have a funded PhD position as part of the DECRA project ‘Fluid dynamics of underground hydrogen storage’ (open to any nationality), co-supervised with A/Prof Anja Slim (Monash). Please see the advert here.
