For this Migration and Medical Climatology, the climatic pull upon those leaving Scotland in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries project at University of Dundee you will examine climate as a pull factor for Scottish immigrants.

Energy Systems and Climate Change
The main characteristic of this doctoral programme in Energy Systems and Climate Change at Universidade de Aveiro aims to provide students with the necessary knowledge, techniques, and systemic vision essential for producing scientifically relevant contributions in the design, analysis, project development, control, and operation of systems that manage flows of energy.

Atmosphere, Oceans and Climate
We offer our graduate studemts a phd degree in Atmosphere, Oceans and Climate at the University of Reading.

Weather, climate, human impacts and human responses in early modern Scotland (c.1600-c.1700)
This Weather, climate, human impacts and human responses in early modern Scotland (c.1600-c.1700) project at University of Dundee is relevant to the interdisciplinary research theme of climate action and net zero.
Atmospheric Sciences
This Atmospheric Sciences programme at The University of Manchester includes many areas of atmospheric science, exploring a range of physical, chemical and electrical processes.
Environment and Climate Research
The Environment and Climate Research programme at Wageningen University and Research supports PhD candidates in the natural and social environmental sciences during their PhD trajectory.
Environmental and Climate Science
The PhD programme in Environmental and Climate Science at Lund University concerns the scientific study of environmental problems caused by humanity.
Meteorology
The Meteorology discipline comprises studies of physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere. The research at Uppsala University is primarily focused on processes in the atmospheric boundary layer and the free troposphere – roughly spanning the lowest 10 kilometres of our atmosphere.
Climate Sciences
The PhD Climate Sciences program at University of Bern consists mainly of the PhD thesis involving 3 to 4 years (full time) of research work in a project within one of the research units of the faculty affiliated with the Graduate School of Climate Sciences.
Climate Change and Sustainable Development Policies
The PhD Program in Climate Change and Sustainable Development Policies is a joint initiative between the Instituto Superior Técnico and New University of Lisbon, working in partnership with the University of East Anglia, UK a leading international institution in these fields.
Future Earth, Climate Change and Societal Challenges
Holders of the Future Earth, Climate Change and Societal Challenges PhD at University of Bologna may find work opportunities in the public administration at the international, national, regional and local level, in all sectors of the economy, from environmental protection agencies to energy, transport and service industries and the national health system.
Sustainable Development and Climate Change
Embracing the ethos of environmental stewardship, the University School for Advanced Studies Pavia (IUSS) proudly offers the Sustainable Development and Climate Change doctoral program.
Atmospheric Science
Atmospheric Science at Luleå University of Technology investigates the interactions of Earth and other planetary bodies with their environment.
Climate Change, Past, Present and Future
Environmental changes in Earth history can be used to help understand and predict the trajectory of future anthropogenically driven environmental change. This Climate Change, Past, Present and Future programme is offered at The Open University UK/
Water and Climate Risk
The PhD programme of the Department of Water and Climate Risk at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam aims at developing data and modelling methods for the analysis of societal and environmental risk related to water and climate.
Metrology
The Metrology programme offered at Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava define methods and procedures for designing measurements at the highest metrological level, physical principles, design solutions and method of application of working measuring instruments and measurement standards in selected areas of measurement.
Environmental Physics and Meteorology
The Environmental Physics and Meteorology at Comenius University Bratislava is an interdisciplinary science with a very wide range of research opportunities in academic and research and development institutes and universities.
Climate Change and Ecosystem Services
Climate Change and Ecosystem Services research at The Open University UK seeks to monitor and quantify climate-related change for a range of Earth’s systems, while increasing predictive capability through the development of Earth system models of intermediate complexity.
Energy and Climate
The HITEC Energy and Climate programme at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf intends to create optimal conditions for these talented young researchers. Joint lectures and practical training encourage their understanding of topics and the related methods, including joint use of the scientific infrastructure.
