Institute for Advanced Studies Studentships
We're investing in the next generation of world-class researchers.
Our Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS) Studentships represent a £3.6m investment by the University in doctoral research from 2023-2025. We're offering both UK and international students:
- A number of 3-year full-time equivalent PhD studentships on a fully-funded basis (fees and stipend at the UKRI rate)
- Fee waivers
- Bursaries for students who already hold funding awards for fees
IAS Studentship holders will work in collaborative, inter-disciplinary clusters of postgraduate researchers working on complementary doctoral projects.
