School-wide PhD scholarships
Our School of Social Sciences also offers PhD scholarships open to prospective Politics and International Studies students. These are normally advertised in the autumn of each year on specialised websites such as jobs.ac.uk. You can also stay updated on this and other opportunities by following us on Twitter.
University-wide PhD scholarships
º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ also runs several University-wide PhD scholarship schemes that are open to Politics and International Studies students. These are targeted at prospective PhD students from specific countries or in specific areas of specialisation.
Self-funding
Students can also fund their own PhD, in which case they may be able to partly cover their expenses with a variety of sources of loans and support from different funders.
