Posted on 25 May 2011
The studentships have been awarded under the Collaborative Doctoral Award scheme and will involve significant experience of working in the partner institutions: the National Gallery, Tate and Glasgow Museums.

We are looking to recruit highly promising students who will relish the unique opportunities these awards offer. The successful candidate will meet the AHRC’s criteria for eligibility, including residency criteria (the full award is generally only available to UK applicants) and be able to demonstrate the potential to develop advanced research skills. The award pays tuition fees and a maintenance grant each year (£14,090 in 2011-12) for a maximum of three years of full-time doctoral study, subject to evidence of satisfactory progress.
Further details about these awards and how to apply for them are detailed in the linked documents above. The deadline for applications is 5.00pm on 17 June 2011. The Postgraduate Administrator would welcome any enquiries regarding the application process.
