Cultures Littraires Europennes (CLE) Scholarships at Erasmus Mundus

Overview
The CLE Masters Course in European Literary Cultures aims at preparing European and International graduates for professions in which is requested the knowledge of: 1) at least three languages; 2) the different methodologies in at least three cultural fields as for example History of Literature, Texts Analysis, History, History of Art, History of Ideas.

The main objective of the Masters Course is to train a cultural operator / a researcher / a teacher to have a good range of methodologies and a high cultural appreciation of the different contexts of European culture which enable a comparison with other cultures. The main characteristic of this profile is the combination of the historical-linguistic skills, also at an advanced level, and a high knowledge of other disciplines. These profiles are characterized by the continual application of the linguistic and cultural skills within an analytical and critical perspective.

[UK] PhD Studentship in The significance of the oxidation state of gold in heterogeneous catalysis at Cardiff School of Chemistry

PhD Studentship in The significance of the oxidation state of gold in heterogeneous catalysis at Cardiff School of Chemistry

Overview
Gold is widely recognised as having enormous promise in heterogeneous catalysis but development has been hindered by the lack of fundamental understanding of reaction mechanism.

The aim of the present theoretical investigation of the gold/carbon hydrochlorination catalyst is to provide new insights into the topic by taking advantage of the ability to change the halide counter ion to explore the effects of structure and cation charge. The theoretical work will be carried out in conjunction with an experimental investigation employing a powerful combination of surface spectroscopy, surface microscopy and surface kinetic methods.

Supervisors: Dr David Willock and Dr Philip Davies
