New studentships for 2013/2014
Valued at £58,500 each
Building on an investment of £5 million over three years we are now inviting applications from world-class research students within four research clusters:
- Understanding Conflict: Forms and Legacies of Violence
- Nanostructured Smart Materials
- Musculoskeletal Disease Pathology and Diagnosis
- Regenerative Medicine
These clusters have been established around existing high profile research teams for further development of their stimulating, cohesive, yet interdisciplinary research environments.
The Brighton Doctoral College is providing 60 new doctoral studentships over three years, and has committed funds for 20 new fully-funded studentships starting in 2013/14. These studentships are currently valued at £58,500 each.
Each studentship is for entry in the 2013/14 academic year and will support full-time doctoral study over a three-year period.
Transformative research
The University of Brighton was recognised as a ‘rising research star’ after moving up 21 places in the Times Higher Education quality league tables following the most recent Research Assessment Exercise (RAE 2008). At Brighton we are ambitious and determined to take our success to the next level, committed to delivering transformative research that has real-life positive impacts. We believe in two types of research – research that has been applied and research that will be applied. Find out more.
Award-winning research support
Our Doctoral College provides an academic and pastoral support network for researchers across the university and is recognised with the prestigious European Commission HR Excellence in Research Award.
