Dear all,

 

Happy New Year!

Just a brief reminder that the deadline for the following PhD scholarships is fast approaching (17:00 on Tuesday, 15 January 2019):

  1. Scottish Graduate School for Arts and Humanities

St Andrews belongs to the Scottish Graduate School, a consortium of Higher Education institutions which awards AHRC funding to support postgraduate studentships and training in the Arts and Humanities in Scotland: http://www.sgsah.ac.uk/prospective/dtp/howtoapply/

AHRC scholarships cover both fees and a stipend for successful applicants who satisfy the UK eligibility criteria.

 

  1. Carnegie-Caledonian PhD Scholarships

The prestigious Carnegie PhD Scholarship scheme supports a limited number of graduates, with first class Honours undergraduate degrees from a Scottish university, who wish to pursue three years of postgraduate research leading to a PhD at a university in Scotland. Further information is available at: http://www.carnegie-trust.org/schemes/postgraduate-schemes/carnegie-caledonian-scholarships.html

 

  1. School of Modern Languages PhD Scholarship

We invite applications for ONE fully-funded PhD scholarship (EU/Home fees plus £10k per annum maintenance) via the standard University application route at the link above. Please specify in your application that you wish to be considered for this scholarship.  International PhD student applicants to the School of Modern Languages Scholarship, and for PhD study independently of this award may also be eligible for the University’s St Leonard's International Doctoral Fees Scholarships, covering the difference between Home/EU and international fees. The strategic fit of the proposed research to the School is a core selection criterion as is financial need. Full details are here:

The University expects to award its 5 available scholarships at that time; however, if that is not the case, the call for applications will re-open until 12 March 2019.

EU student applicants (non-UK) applying to the School of Modern Languages for Scottish Graduate School for Arts and Humanities PhD scholarships (fees only) may also apply for a St Leonard’s European Doctoral Stipend Scholarship:

Additionally, the School of Modern Languages proactively welcomes interdisciplinary PhD applicants, in Medieval Studies, in the cross-cultural nineteenth century, in the literatures of science and medical humanities, in the contemporary among others.
