***Funding***
The School of Humanities has two PhD Studentships to award to applicants who are registering to undertake PhD study on a full-time basis, starting in September 2012. Each studentship pays UK/EU fees and a maintenance grant (approximately £13,600 per annum).
To apply for a Studentship, you first need to hold an offer to study on the PhD at Nottingham. The application for a place will take around four weeks, and so we advise applying as soon as possible if you would also like to apply for a Studentship.
