Exciting new opportunities for funding of PhD research at University of Manchester (open to all research areas, including electroacoustic composition, and open to UK, EU and overseas applicants):

2012 President's Doctoral Scholar Awards: School of Arts, Histories and Cultures

The University of Manchester has launched a further £2.5m investment in PhD training with the creation of the President's Doctoral Scholar (PDS) Awards. These awards are open to all nationalities and research areas.

The Faculty of Humanities proposes to make around 40 PDS awards, which will take two forms:

[A] 20 or more awards to the top AHRC/ESRC applicants: these awards will provide tuition fees, the research council stipend (£13,590 in 2011-12), and an additional stipend of £1K.

[B] Around 20 further PDS awards, covering tuition fees (home/EU or international, as appropriate) and the equivalent of the research council stipend (£13,590 in 2011-12).

Category A awards will be awarded competitively to the best candidates from any of the schools in the Faculty.

Category B awards are devolved to Schools. The School of Arts, Histories and Cultures and the School of Languages, Linguistics and Cultures, which will form a single School with effect from September 2012, will together make five such awards. Successful candidates will be chosen by open competition among all students holding offers of places on doctoral programmes in either of the two Schools. These awards will carry limited teaching duties.

Deadlines

Applicants must:

Submit their application for a place on a doctoral programme in the School by 15 February 2012 at the latest.

Submit their completed Funding Application Form by 1 March 2012 at the latest.

Any enquiries on PDS funding within the School of Arts, Histories and Cultures should be directed to Joanne Marsh at joanne.marsh@manchester.ac.uk.
