Two PhD Scholarships in Brussels
Funding for two doctoral research scholarships will be available for one year in the first instance, extended to a maximum of three years, based on satisfactory progress. Successful candidates will be registered as full-time students of the University of Kent; registered initially for the MPhil they will be expected to transfer/upgrade to the PhD within 18 months of registration.
Candidates will receive a maintenance grant of €9000 p.a. and tuition fees (€13,690 in 2008/09). Scholarship holders will normally be expected to teach a maximum of 6 hours per week in term time, at the direction of the Dean. Candidates will be subject to an annual review of progress and performance in both research and teaching and will be expected to perform at a satisfactory level in both areas to ensure renewal of their award.
Successful applicants will pursue a thesis topic in an area of research strength of the school. We particularly welcome research proposals in European Public Policy, International Relations, International Conflict Analysis, International Political Economy, and Political Strategy and Communication. Applicants should normally have obtained, or be about to obtain a relevant Master's degree at merit or distinction level. In addition to making an application to study for an MPhil/PhD, applicants are required to submit a research proposal, CV and covering letter. Applicants should also ensure that two academic references are submitted by the closing date of 16 June 2008.
To submit an application for the PhD scholarships please follow the instructions as detailed on the following webpage: http://www.kent.ac.uk/brussels/admissions.html.
