A small number of studentships covering fees are available in the Department each year. Demand for these is very high and early application is advised. Overseas applicants can apply for an ORSAS/BIRS award to cover the difference between Home and Overseas Fees. The closing date for receiving ORSAS/BIRS applications is normally in late March. There are also a very small number of bursaries to cover maintenance costs each year, and these can only be awarded to exceptional applicants. Early application for these is strongly recommended. Other sources of funding are Research Assistant and Teaching Assistant posts. These posts are advertised here when available. RAs and TAs are able to register for research degrees as part-time students. Further information about financial support for MPhil/PhD students. Please contact the Research Administrator for details of current availability of studentships and bursaries.
