PhD Studentship in History of Science/Technology/Medicine

A three-year PhD studentship is available from September 1999 for
research in the history of science/technology/medicine.  Applications
in all areas are welcome, though projects on the history of
nineteenth- and twentieth-century physical and chemical
sciences/technologies are especially encouraged.  Informal discussions
with CHSTM staff regarding possible research topics are welcome. 

Applicants should have (or expect to obtain) a Master's degree in
history of science/technology or a related subject.  Undergraduates
expecting to graduate with first or good upper second class honours
and with some background in HST are also eligible to apply;  if
successful, attendance at research training courses will be required
in their first year.

The award covers University fees at home/EU rate and maintenance 
at a rate significantly above that of the ESRC/AHRB;  paid tutorial
teaching will also be available.
