What are the research opportunities for a PhD in astrophysics in Qatar?

[Navami V]

I completed my Masters degree in physics from an Indian University. I would like to know more about research opportunities (PhD) in Qatar in the field of astrophysics. Please guide me

Do you have reason to believe this even exists?

The University of Qatar's graduate admissions page is here. Note that they do not admit PhD students in physics.

The Hamad bin Khalifa University's graduate admissions page is http://www.hbku.edu.qa/en/DynamicPages/index/139/hbku-admissions . Note that they do not have a PhD program.

That appears to exhaust the possibilities. There are various western universities with satellite campuses, but you'd do better to apply to those institutions directly as my impression is that their activities in Qatar are limited to certain subject areas (principally archaeology and arabic studies).

@Vanadium 50 I don't know.. Since my family is shifting there, I was exploring options!

@pasmith thanks! :)

pasmith made my concerns concrete - Qatar is a tiny country. It has twice as many universities as I thought: two.
