Dear all (apologies for cross-posting)

the School of Sociology and Social Policy at Leeds would welcome final applications from outstanding candidates for fully-funded PhD studentship awards.

These include five ESRC funded awards:

·        three ESRC quota awards (in any of our pathways)

·        two White Rose DTC network studentships

We also welcome candidates seeking to apply for ESRC/DTC Advanced Quantitative Methods studentships (these are extra places for applicants who want to use advanced quantitative methods in their PhD research, particularly using large-scale datasets).

In addition the School offers:

·        two fully-funded Teaching and Research Bursaries for PhD study

·        opportunities to compete for additional University of Leeds PhD scholarships

Further details are available at http://www.sociology.leeds.ac.uk/postgraduates/postgraduate-research/funding-scholarships/   

Deadlines for ESRC/DTC applications are 3 February 2012

Best wishes
