King’s College London is inviting applications for a PhD studentship for an outstanding doctoral candidate wishing to pursue a research project in the field of education in colonial and postcolonial Nigeria (1900-present). Education, in a broad sense, applies to children and adults from various regions of Nigeria.

This project is funded by the Wordsworth Blackwell Mather Bursary. The studentship will cover domestic fees across 3 years of study.
Applicants will need to produce a research proposal of c. 3,000 words. This should specify a research objective, the nature of the historiographical contribution to be made, and the methodology to be employed (including a discussion of the primary source base to be used).
