Scottish Human Geography Consortium
ESRC Postgraduate Research Studentship Opportunity (1+3/+3), 2007 start
The Scottish Human Geography Consortium incorporates human geography
delivery units at the Universities of Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow,
St. Andrews, and Strathclyde. It provides ESRC-recognised specialist
postgraduate training in the form of the Kindrogan Postgraduate Training
Weekend, and has played a central role in cultivating a vibrant and
meaningful Scotland-wide network of postgraduate scholars.
The Consortium studentship allows the successful applicant to draw on the
rich range of resources offered by Scottish-based human geography
programmes. The successful applicant will be registered in one university
but jointly supervised by staff from one other university in the
consortium. Applicants and potential supervisors will work together to
establish which cross-institutional arrangement would best serve the
student and project.
Applicants for +3 must hold an ESRC recognised Masters (or equivalent).
Students pursuing a 1+3 model are eligible to enter any of the ESRC-
recognised Masters Research training programmes run by Consortium members.
Applications must include 8 copies of the following: a letter of
application stating which institution/s and supervisor/s the applicant
would seek to affiliate with; a CV; two sealed letters of reference; and a
two page outline of the proposed research topic.
