Techne AHRC Doctoral Training Partnership Studentships at University Of Westminster 2023

Eligibility:

• The University of Westminister is offering studentships in the faculty of arts and humanities.
• Applicants should have a 2:1 classification in their first degree preferably master's or its equivalent.
• Candidates should show English language proficiency proof of IELTS 6.5 if their secondary-level education has not been conducted in English medium.
• The proposed project should show intellectual excellence, challenging disciplinary boundaries, and should make excellent use of the archive.
• The selected candidates should be committed to the doctoral research community of the university and the faculty and should disseminate the importance of the archive internally and externally.

For 3.5 years for a full-time student or 7 years for a part-time student, the studentships cover maintenance and fees at 50% of the full-time studentship level annually (pro rata if you have already started your PhD). Students who have already begun their PhD studies are eligible for studentships, but they must have at least 50% of the funded period of an AHRC award (often 18 months of full-time study) left when they begin their scholarship. While the studentship will only cover fees at the home rate plus the stipend, overseas students are welcome to apply for studentships but will be required to pay the difference between the home and international fee rates themselves. The international fee rate is £15,450, and the home fee rate for 24/25 is £5,800. As a result, overseas students will be responsible for paying the £9,650 difference between these fee amounts.
