The University of Stirling is a member of the Scottish Graduate School of Arts and Humanities (SGSAH). It is also a member of Higher Education Institution of the AHRC Doctoral Training Partnership Scotland (AHRC DTP Scotland). The SGSAH has received funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) to support postgraduate studentships, training and support for postgraduate Research Students in the Arts and Humanities. The DTP studentship offers a high-value scholarship package which supports students to pursue innovative research in their chosen research areas. The design of the DTP will benefit successful students from training and development opportunities, such as events, internships and artist residencies, short term language courses and summer school.
The Faculty will run a training event for applicants, and prospective supervisors will work closely with successful applicants on their applications. A Faculty panel will also provide detailed feedback on applications.
The University of Stirling is now taking applications for AHRC-funded PhD studentships in the following subject areas:
Eligibility:
How do I apply?
You will apply for the studentship through the University of Stirling. You will need to identify a potential supervisory team and discuss your proposal and application with them in the first instance. You can find a potential supervisor at ‘Choose a subject and find a supervisor on How to apply to our Research Degrees on www.stir.ac.uk/research/research-degrees/how-to-apply-for-our-research-degrees. Alternatively, the Associate Dean for Graduate Studies can help you identify a supervisor specialised in the area of your proposed research project. Enquiries can be sent to fah-pgr@stir.ac.uk.
The completed forms will have to be submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Humanities Graduate Studies Office (fah-pgr@stir.ac.uk) by 5pm on 12th December 2022 (and copied in to the Associate Dean for Postgraduate Studies, Professor Holger Nehring, holger.nehring@stir.ac.uk) to enable us to carry out an internal Review Process for nomination.
On nomination by the University of Stirling, you can then apply to the PhD research programme using our online application portal. Before applying, you should refer to the documents which can be found here for additional guidance on the process. You should also send your note of interest to the Graduate Studies Office (fah-pgr@stir.ac.uk) in order to be exempted from the Find A Supervisor process.
