Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Block Grant Partnerships (BGP)

The School of Advanced Study, University of London has available a number of Studentships starting in October 2012 for both research (MPhil/PhD /doctoral) and Master's degrees under the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) Block Grant Partnerships (BGP) scheme to Home/EU students, both full- and part-time, registered at one of the institutes of the School from the following subject areas:

·      Cultural Studies

·      European Language and Culture

·      History

·      History of Art

·      Law (within the subject area boundaries of the AHRC)

In addition to this, the School will offer up to two Doctoral Studentships awarded on a competitive basis to Home/EU or Overseas students, both full- and part-time, registered at one of the School’s institutes, to commence in October 2012.

AHRC BGP Studentships cover fees and maintenance allowance. A full Studentship is offered to those meeting UK residency criteria. EU nationals resident in the EU/EEA are eligible for a fees-only Studentship.

School Doctoral Studentships cover tuition fees and a maintenance grant. Students assessed for fees at the Overseas rate will be required to pay the difference between the Overseas and Home/EU fee. Only those students about to start their first year of study are eligible.

 

The current maintenance rates for both Studentships are £15,590 full-time and £9,355 part-time. Rates may be subject to change. 

 

The closing date for applications is 19 March 2012.
