*PhD scholarship in Classical Chinese Studies (2013-2016)[UK/EU],
Cambridge University.*
The Department of East Asian Studies offers funding for one PhD
fellowship to start in October 2013. The value of the scholarship will
be £15,000 per year for a maximum of 3 years. This will cover university
composition and college fees for a UK/EU student plus a significant part
towards maintenance (for details, see
http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/gradstud/).
Preference will be given to research proposals in the following fields:
early Chinese cultural history; religion and thought of pre-imperial and
early imperial China; classical Chinese philology, text and manuscript
studies, Dunhuang studies. It is expected that the candidate will be
supervised by Prof. Roel Sterckx and/or Dr Imre Galambos. Candidates
should have an undergraduate, and preferably, a master's degree in
Chinese Studies, have an advanced level of classical Chinese, and be
proficient in modern Chinese. A reading knowledge of Japanese can be an
advantage.
Candidates are encouraged to contact Professor Sterckx
([log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]>) or Dr Galambos
([log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]>) for informal enquiries
but should apply formally through the Board of Graduate Studies. For
information on graduate admissions, see
http://www.ames.cam.ac.uk/deas/graduate-preparation.htm. We recommend
that applicants apply by 1 December 2012.
