The studentships will cover UK/EU tuition fees and a maintenance allowance broadly equivalent to those of the UK Research Councils and the British Academy. Research costs may also be paid.

Eligibility
The sole criterion for the studentships will be academic excellence; successful applicants are likely to be holders of a First Class or Upper Second Class Honours degrees from UK institutions or the overseas equivalent. Candidates who have progressed to obtain a Masters degree with distinction will also be considered.

All international students who apply for the studentships are also required to apply for an Overseas Research Students Awards Scheme (ORSAS) award or be able to demonstrate the availability of funds to meet the full overseas tuition fee.
