We have funding to support two full-time PhD studentships, to commence 1 October 2012. Studentships provide a stipend linked to the research council level (in 2011/12 this is £13,590 per annum), and cover tuition fees (the rate for UK or EU students). Students have an additional fund for research expenses of £1,000 per annum. Successful applicants will have at least an upper second class honours in their undergraduate degree and will usually have completed (or will complete by September 2011) a relevant Master's degree. Applications are welcome across the full range of subject areas within the Faculty, although priority may be given to applications which link to existing research strengths.
