Partner Studentships offer a tuition fee waiver (at the home/EU rate) and a stipend. The studentship covers three years of full time PhD registration. The stipend is contributed by an external partner and is usually equivalent to a UK Research Council stipend (£13,590) for 2010-11. In addition, the Partner Studentship usually offers the opportunity to work with the external partner gaining valuable experience and career development at the same time as carrying out doctoral research. The eligible department will offer further guidance on the specific expectations of a particular Partner Studentship.
Eligibility: In order to be eligible you must:
- Have applied for a place on a full time PhD programme in the relevant Department.
- Have or expect to obtain a first or upper second class honours degree or equivalent prior to commencing the PhD degree.
