PhD Studentships

The University of Worcester offers a number of research studentships each year. These are usually three-year, full-time doctoral research studentships. All studentships are advertised in the national press and are available on a competitive basis.

Each studentship attracts a bursary, in addition to a full tuition fee waiver for UK/EU students. Overseas students are welcome to apply but will need to fund the balance of fees for Overseas Research Students.

All applicants should apply using the appropriate application form, Application Form A or Application Form B, and return this by the closing date to the Graduate Research School either by post or email to research@worc.ac.uk

The next round of doctoral studentships will be advertised in January 2012.
