The University of East Anglia in collaboration with the South East Network for Social Sciences is inviting applications for Phd Studentships. Applications are required to both UEA (for the Ph.D.) and SeNSS (for the funding). The start date is 1st October, 2022. This project has been selected for funding by the SeNSS ESRC Doctoral Training Partnership. The studentship is a +3 award (a three-year Ph.D.), and may be taken full-time or part-time.
The studentship award covers university fees, and provides you a stipend at UKRI rates (£15,609 for 2021/22). In order to be considered for this SeNSS studentship, you must first apply for a place to study in the University of East Anglia, noting that you are applying for the collaborative studentship. Then, a separate application to SeNSS for this collaborative studentship should be made.
