administrator Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 The Universities of Edinburgh and Glasgow are delighted to announce the launch of joint four-year PhD studentships, for entry in academic year 2019/20. We have 12 scholarships available covering a stipend, tuition fees at Home/EU rates and travel funds. Students are invited to apply for projects in three areas: One Health, Criminology, and Future Cities. Each student will spend up to 12 months carrying out a minimum of two taster projects (one at each university) before selecting their main PhD project. Students will participate in a residential symposium during their first year. Students will be co-supervised by the two institutions, have access to state of the art facilities in both institutions, but will receive their degree from the institution where their lead supervisor is based. For more information, including a description of available projects and supervisors, follow the links in the theme boxes below. Applications are invited from outstanding students from any location. International students should note that the difference between Home/EU fees and international fees will be covered by the student. Application deadline: 5.00pm, Monday 21 January 2019. Interviews will take place in February 2019. How to apply Prospective students should review the list of potential project proposals. Queries regarding eligibility can be directed to the theme leads of either university. Applicants should register their details online.
