POLIS Scholarships 2012-13

Date: 2012-13
Deadline: 17 February 2012
Open to: EU and international students taking a POLIS PhD programme
Funding and scholarships
There are a number of awards that may be of interest to applicants for postgraduate research paths at the School of Politics and International Studies. You should be aware that the scholarship deadlines are often much earlier than you may think, so early enquiry is recommended.
The application process for a place on the PhD programme can take some time, involving careful consideration of the research proposal and complete formal application by two suitable supervisors followed by an interview by telephone or in person before final acceptance. You are therefore advised to begin the PhD application process well before the closing dates for scholarships. Scholarship applications from candidates who have not received a formal offer of a place at the University will not be considered.
POLIS scholarships 2012-13
POLIS is offering one fees plus maintenance and one fees only scholarship to Home/EU students taking a POLIS PhD programme.
POLIS is also offering one fees only scholarship to international students taking a POLIS PhD programme.
Small amounts may also be awarded as partial fee waivers to excellent candidates who have arranged funds from other sources but who still have a small shortfall. This part of the budget is managed on a case-by-case basis; in previous years we were able to help several outstanding students to enrol in the School.
Please note that POLIS funding is allocated on the basis of academic merit.
Further details of all of these awards may be obtained from the Postgraduate Office.
