The Research Council invites suitably qualified women and men to apply for
the following research opportunities in the Humanities, Social Sciences, Law
and Business Studies. In each case, Terms and Conditions apply.
Post-Graduate Scholarships:
Applicants should already be, or will be during the academic year 2001/2002,
registered in a recognised third-level institution in the Republic of
Ireland as full-time post-graduate research students. They must be nationals
of a member country of the European Union. Such students should be pursuing,
or intend to pursue during 2001/2002, degrees by major thesis. Those who are
undertaking taught programmes, or degrees where a thesis is a minor part of
the programme, are not eligible.

initially for one year, but subject to terms and conditions, renewable for
up to two additional years. Fees will also be covered for the period of the
Scholarship.

(B) PhD Postgraduate Scholarships: Fee waiver for non EU nationals
To enhance the international reputation and attractiveness of postgraduate
studies at PhD level at UCC, ten (10) scholarships per year will be awarded
on a competitive basis to non EU nationals. No more than three scholarships
will be awarded annually in any one faculty. It is the purpose of these
scholarships to attract PhD students of the highest level. These
scholarships consist of a waiver of portion of the normal fee. Recipients
will be responsible only for the normal EU fee. The determination of awards
will be made by the Interfaculty Graduate Studies Board (IFGSB). The IFGSB's
decision on these awards will be final.
