Although all doctoral programmes and applications are determined by the University of Oxford, we encourage scholars, espcially early career researchers, in particular fields, including: nuclear arms and deterrence; space, cyber, & electromagnetic warfare; uncrewed autonomous systems (‘drones’) and precision armaments; artificial intelligence applications in armed conflict; intelligence, surveillance, & reconnaissance; multi-domain operations & doctrine development; and defence capability strategy, development, & management.
