Kent Law School (KLS) invites applications for full time research studentships leading to the degree of PhD commencing in September 2011. Candidates will initially register for a full time MPhil research degree at the University of Kent at Canterbury. One of these studentships will be awarded specifically for research in the area of International Law and, although the recipient will be part of the Canterbury campus postgraduate community, the associated teaching responsibilities will take place at the University’s Medway campus. The funding will be available for one year in the first instance, extended (for registered students only) for a second year providing verifiable progress has been made (in teaching and research), and extended for a third year providing the candidate has upgraded from MPhil to PhD.
The successful applicants for the studentships will receive a maintenance grant equivalent to that offered by ESRC (£13,590 in 2010/11) and tuition fees paid at the home/EU rate (£3,950 in 2010/2011).Those awarded a studentship will normally be expected to teach a maximum of four hours per week in term time on an undergraduate English law module, at the direction of the Head of Department.  Some bursaries (for example, reducing overseas fee to home fee rate) may also be available.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 15 April 2011
