Research opportunities

We welcome organisations from policy, environmental practice and industry contacting us to discuss collaboration opportunities. Our transdisciplinary approach means that we co-design and co-deliver much of our research together with partner organisations to ensure that research excellence leads to real-world impact.

The Institute for Environmental Futures is home to a large and vibrant community of PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. If you are interested in exploring opportunities to study for a research degree, please email us at ief@leicester.ac.uk. We do not accept job applications by email. Instead, you are advised to apply through the University of Leicester jobs portal. 

If you are interested in an undergraduate or postgraduate taught degree course, please see our Students' Guide, in particular our Environmental Science BSc or Environmental Futures MSc.
