Love chocolates? You have a mighty reason to relish them more as the Cambridge University is seeking a researcher for a PhD on chocolates!
Yes, you read it right. The sweet-toothed candidate will undertake a three-and-a-half year PhD course to become the world's first "doctor of chocolate".
The course is part of the department of chemical engineering and biotechnology at Cambridge, media reports said.
The course will examine topics like how chocolate can remain solid in warm environments and will require good mathematical skills.
It will begin in January 2015 and interested candidates can apply till Aug 29.
Right now, it is only available to European nationals who must have at least four years of study at the university level, the reports added.
