The School of Arts at the
University of Kent is inviting applications to our Film PhD programmes. The
Faculty of Humanities at Kent is a member of CHASE (with six other institutions
in the South East), a consortium that was recently awarded an AHRC Block Grant
Partnership which provides 75 studentships available in 2014/15 across the entire consortium.
Applicants wanting to pursue a PhD in Film will compete for these studentships
with applicants to other programmes in the School of Arts, other schools at
Kent and other members of the consortium.
In addition, the School of Arts has a number of Doctoral Scholarships to award as part of the University of Kent’s 50th Anniversary scheme. These scholarships will be for Graduate Teaching Assistantships (GTAs), which will cover tuition fees at the home/EU rate plus a maintenance grant and a salary. GTAs will be offered for one year in the first instance, renewable for a maximum of three years subject to satisfactory academic progress.
Details about both the selection process for the CHASE scholarship and Kent’s 50th Anniversary scholarship can be found here: http://www.kent.ac.uk/arts/scholarships.html
