Ways people have joined us

PhD

Our PhD students have been funded through competitive doctoral training schemes such as the FoodBioSystems DTP, often in partnership with plant breeding companies.

Year in Industry & Masters

Aberystwyth undergraduates regularly spend their Year in Industry with us, and some come back for a Masters project.

Undergraduate projects

Final-year and summer projects give undergraduates hands-on experience of genetics and cytology research, from fertility under heat stress to meiosis in polyploids.
