The information below relates to 2019 admission – we expect to have a similar offering for 2020 admission.

The studentships provide an annual stipend of £18,000 for 3.5 years, University fees and research costs. The duration of the studentship allows for a funded period of write-up prior to thesis submission.

In addition to excellent research facilities, students will have access to a wide variety of training and researcher development activities, many of which are offered through the Graduate School of Life Sciences and the wider University, and have the opportunity to apply for an additional 3 month funded external placement.

The closing date for applications is 7th December 2018.

Interviews: week commencing 28th January 2019.
