Prof Jonathan Woodham — [log in to unmask] — has asked me to draw this AHRC-funded PhD Studentships opportunity (attached) to the attention of prospective design history PhD students. Brighton is part of two AHRC consortia entitled TECHNE (led by Royal Holloway) and Design Star (led by Reading) and has a small number of additional studentships to offer. Design History proposals of quality are invited and may have a place in either scheme, depending on how they are framed (see details on the attached).
