Environmental Geochemistry and Geomicrobiology

Course Overview

Offered by University of Manchester, the PhD Environmental Geochemistry and Geomicrobiology provides a comprehensive postgraduate education in sport and exercise science. Based in Manchester, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 3-year full-time and part-time structure. Environmental Geochemistry and Geomicrobiology, focuses on the characterisation of mineral water organic matter reactions in surface and near surface environments. Since chemical reactions in these environments are often catalysed by microorganisms, we have developed a recent and expanding interest in geomicrobiology. Here by combining the techniques of microbiology and molecular biology with physical, chemical and modelling approaches, we focus on the role microorganisms play - or have played - in key geological processes. A minimum ielts score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 88% student satisfaction rating.
