Edinburgh Doctoral College and Business School Scholarships

A number of fully funded scholarships are available for any area of study within the doctoral programme.

In order to attract the best and brightest PhD students, the University seeks to offer not only unparalleled research facilities and superb supervision, but also to provide development opportunities which will support our research students as they progress beyond their PhD through an exciting scholarship scheme.

This scholarship is awarded in collaboration between the University's Doctoral College and the Business School.

Eligibility

Applicants must meet the following requirements:

• Programme: All candidates must hold a conditional or unconditional offer onto one of our Doctoral programmes and expect to join in September 2024. While you can be awaiting an application outcome when applying for this scholarship only those with an offer can be considered. Therefore, please ensure all necessary documents have been uploaded to your programme application at least 10 working days before the scholarship deadline.
• Academic Standing: This normally requires a minimum qualification (or expected qualification if you are a current Masters student) of above-average academic achievement, typically 65% or above overall at the Masters level, with a distinction-level dissertation, or the overseas equivalent. For PhD Financial Technology, this requires a Masters with a distinction classification or the overseas equivalent. For applicants to our PhD with Integrated Study programmes, applicants who do not hold a Masters can be considered if they have a First at Undergraduate level, or the international equivalent, with a mark of 70 or more in the dissertation module.
• English Competency: You must meet the English requirements for the PhD Programme. PhD in Management , PhD in Accounting , PhD in Finance , or the PhD in Financial Technology .--> The most commonly approved certificate is an IELTS , for which the minimum accepted score is 7.0 overall with at least 6.0 in each section.

Please note that we will not generally consider candidates who have already obtained a PhD or equivalent qualification.

Other factors such as financial status and nationality are not taken into account. We aim to attract the greatest diversity of applications to this scheme and will ensure that recruitment processes are robust and unbiased so that traditionally underrepresented groups, including those from a minority background, and those from the most deprived communities in Scotland and the rest of the world are treated fairly.

Full tuition fees (UK or Overseas level) with an annual stipend equal to the UKRI minimum rate for the relevant academic year of study.

Subject to satisfactory progress, the scholarship is offered for 3 and a half years for those enrolled on one of our 3 year PhD programmes, or for 4 years for those enrolled on one of our 4-year Integrated PhD programmes (or pro-rata for part time).

How to apply

To be considered, candidates must submit both a programme application and a scholarship application using the University's Online Application System. You will only be able to access the scholarship application after you have applied to your chosen programme.

It is recommended that the programme application be submitted at least 10 working days before the scholarship application.

• Programme Application Guidance
• Scholarship Application and Guidance

We strongly encourage applicants to reach out directly to potential advisors at the Business School by email to discuss the opportunity of doing a PhD under their supervision. Applicants should take care to ensure the academic staff they reach out to have similar research interests. To do this, candidates should browse staff profiles .

Selection Process

Eligible applicants will be ranked initially by a selection panel comprising of senior academic colleagues within the Business School broadly within the applicant’s discipline. The top ranked candidates will then be invited to an interview with the Business School PGR Programme Director and senior Business School research colleagues. The interview will focus on motivation, research experience and contribution of the research.

Applications are ranked considering a number of criteria, most importantly:

• The academic background of the candidates, including their achievements/research experience so far
• The potential of the candidates' doctoral research proposal (e.g., novelty, contribution)
• undertake and complete a PhD
• flourish with funding
• contribute to a positive/diverse PhD community

Scholarship awards are subject to candidates successfully securing admission and joining the PhD with Integrated Study in Management, PhD with Integrated Study in Accounting, PhD with Integrated Study in Finance, PhD Business Economics, PhD Management Science & Analytics, or Financial Technology in September 2024.

Award Announcement Date

Candidates will be notified of the outcome of their application in late spring 2024.

Please be aware that we also hold a reserve list. In the event that a successful candidate later declines their award, the award will be offered to the top candidate on the reserve list. Candidates will be notified if they are listed as a reserve candidate.

We provide a variety of funding opportunities for PhD studentships

The University of Edinburgh provides a variety of funding opportunities for PhD studentships throughout the year. The bulk of studentships are offered in the winter recruitment round from November to January, but individual studentships become available regularly. Each individual PhD project page will indicate the eligibity requirements associated with any funding for that project. These will fall into one of the following categories:

Funded Project (UK)

Individual projects with studentship funding available for students who are UK citizens or EU citizens who have been resident in the UK for 3 years. This sort of funding often comes from studentships provided by UK-based charities and UK funding agencies.

Funded Project (UK/EU)

Individual projects with studentship funding for students who are UK or EU citizens. This sort of funding often comes from studentships provided by UK funding agencies or by the University of Edinburgh.

Funded Project (Open)

Occasionally studentships are made available to students with no restriction on nationality or residency.

Competition Studentships ('UK', 'UK/EU' and 'Open')

The bulk of projects each year are offered within a ‘competition studentship’ funding scheme which usually takes place between November and January. These studentships are usually offered by individual research centres. These differ from individual projects, since a variety of projects are offered by the centre but only one or two funded studentships are available, so the successful student is able to nominate the project they wish to pursue.

Competition studentships often have eligibility restrictions, as for the individually funded projects outlined above.  So, 'UK' would provide funding for UK nationals (or EU with 3 years residency), 'UK/EU' would have funding available to UK and EU nationals, while 'Open' indicates that funding is available to students worldwide.

An important note about fees

Non-UK, non-EU students are subject to Foreign Postgraduate student fees. Outstanding students from overseas (non-UK, non-EU) who apply for 'Open Competition Studentship' projects restricted to UK/EU nationals may be nominated by the University for an Edinburgh Global Research Scholarship to cover foreign student fees. These Studentships are highly competitive and an application to this fund can only be made following successful PhD interview.  Many 'Competition Studentships' have early deadlines to accommodate the deadline for the Edinburgh Global Research Scholarship, which is often the end of January, since students must have a PhD placement offer before they can apply for the Edinbrugh Global Research Scholarship.

Self-Funded

We welcome applications from candidates with their own sources of funding (e.g. a government award).  All candidates must still apply via this portal using the application form available on the Applying page.

Please note: In addition to payment of fees at the appropriate level, self-funded students will also be required to pay research costs, which will depend on the nature of the research to be conducted. For instance, projects involving molecular biological techniques may exceed £8,000 per year. The level of research costs should be discussed and established with your intended supervisor. You will also need about £13,550 per year to live on (the current level of stipend for Research Council Studentships). Thus the real cost of studying as a supervised PhD student at the University of Edinburgh and living in Edinburgh may be as high as £30,000 per year, or more, for up to four years.

Edinburgh Doctoral College Scholarships

Edinburgh Doctoral College Scholarships are open to UK and overseas students applying to start their first year of study for an on-campus research degree in 2024-24.  Three Edinburgh Doctoral College Scholarships are available for a PhD student starting their PhD research in the School of Physics and Astronomy in the 2024/25 academic year.  

The Scholarship covers the University tuition fee as well as a stipend equal to the UKRI minimum rate, for the relevant academic year of study, approximately a tax-free sum of £18.622 per year.  Subject to satisfactory progress, the Scholarship is offered for 4 years.  Applicants should indicate on their application to study for a PhD that they wish to be considered for this Scholarship.  To ensure your application gets to the correct people and won't be held up please ensure you indicate which Institute you are applying for: Astronomy, PPT, PPE, NP, CM (hard) or CM (soft). 

Doctoral Training Scheme 

There are two doctoral training schemes open to UK/EU students: the Soft Matter and Functional Interfaces Centre for Doctoral Training and the Mathematical Modelling, Analysis and Computation (MAC-MIGS) Centre for Doctoral Training

Higgs Prize PhD Studentships in Theoretical Physics

The School of Physics and Astronomy are offering Higgs Prize PhD Studentships in any area of theoretical physics, starting September 2024. We are particularly interested in recruiting students with a strong mathematical background who are passionate to study and explore the fundamental laws of Nature. 

The Prize will cover fees and a four-year stipend, matching the level of the UK Research Council Maintenance Allowance rates (£18,622 per annum (23/24 rate), as well as research funds of £1.5k per annum to cover books, computing and conference costs. Applications are open to all students with no conditions on nationality. Furthermore, we value diversity, and we would like to strongly encourage female and international candidates to apply. 

Before applying, interested candidates should get in touch with a supervisor from the Higgs Centre (a theoretical physicist who is an academic member of staff in the School of Physics and Astronomy) to support their application. Applicants are advised to include in their application a statement of interest regarding the Higgs Prize PhD Fellowship under the ‘Research Proposal’ category (there is no need to write a detailed research proposal,  just a brief description of the general topic agreed upon with the supervisor). Please note on your application that you wish to be considered for this Studentship.  The selection panel will take into account supporting statements from the prospective supervisors.

If you have already submitted a PhD application and now wish to send your statement of interest, please email this to gradschool.physics [at] ed.ac.uk .

We welcome applications for PhD study in Sociology

Edinburgh is one of the leading international centres of excellence for postgraduate study in sociology. Our PhD degree is eligible for Economic and Social Research Council funding for UK and EU students, but our postgraduate research students come from all over the world and we have a vibrant and diverse postgraduate student community, which plays a full role in the life of the department. Many of our students have non-sociology backgrounds and bring with them experience and expertise from other disciplines in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences. Whatever your background, you will thrive at Edinburgh.

Potential applicants are encouraged to contact the Postgraduate Admissions Advisor (Research) [email protected] to discuss their research proposals and the availability of appropriate research supervision, using the email address on the right-hand side of the page.

Questions about eligibility, conditions of entrance, and other aspects of the application and scholarship process should be addressed to [email protected]

Our PhD programme accommodates a great variety of work intellectually and methodologically. We have particular research strengths in the areas of:

• digital sociology
• finance and economic sociology
• environment and energy
• nationalism and political action
• race and decolonisation

But this list does not do full justice to the breadth of work undertaken by our PhD researchers. This work also includes a variety of research approaches, and our staff are equipped to supervise advanced quantitative analysis; digital research; qualitative and ethnographic methods; documentary analysis (including historical and biographical approaches); and mixed methods.

We play a leading role in large methodological initiatives hosted at Edinburgh, including one of the key UK units of the ESRC National Centre for Research Methods and the Applied Quantitative Methods Network ( AQMEN ), as well as the University's Centres for Research on Families and Relationships ,  South Asian Studies  and Canadian Studies .

Our staff are also highly diverse in their origins and the geographical scope of their expertise. We do research covering the UK and other parts of Europe; the Americas (including Latin America); Africa; and across the Middle East, South and East Asia (including China). The work of our PhD researchers also reflects this geographical diversity. 

We provide the necessary training and guidance to support your PhD research and develop your scholarly potential while also equipping you with wider skills, knowledge and experience as the basis for a career within or outside academia. 

PhD researchers in Sociology are allocated a supervisor and a co-supervisor, who advise on the entirety of the research process, from reading and assembling ideas, fieldwork, analysing empirical or theoretical materials, writing up chapters, completing the thesis, and the viva examination which rounds off the process. You are encouraged to contact staff with similar interests to yours and discuss ideas prior to application.

In your first year, you will participate in the Sociology Postgraduate Research Seminar, which runs throughout the academic year. As well as having a cohort- and community-building purpose, this will equip you with the scholarly skills necessary to succeed in your studies and research. It concludes with a research conference in which first year PhD students play a leading role.

You are also expected in your first year to follow the research training courses most appropriate for your proposed methods, and to develop your knowledge of relevant literature and your research design, culminating in submission of a full research proposal 9-12 months after commencement of studies. Subsequent years of the PhD are devoted to research, data analysis and writing of the thesis, alongside any further specific or general training you require or choose to follow. Typically, there are also opportunities for paid teaching employment throughout. 

While we will consider any PhD topic for supervision, to help you identify potential supervisors you might review the key people under our key research themes to see if any of these match your interests. Here you can also find (via the Methods theme) some indication of our areas of particular methodological expertise. You can also review all the personal pages and interests of our academic staff .

Applying for this PhD

• Identify potential supervisors suited to your research interests
• Write a draft research proposal
• Contact the Postgraduate Advisor with your research proposal and list of potential supervisors
• Once discussed with the Postgraduate Advisor, formally submit your application on EUCLID

Education: AB Bryn Mawr College, PhD Princeton University, MLIS University of California, Los Angeles

Julie Park is Paterno Family Librarian for Literature and Professor of English. She is an established scholar of eighteenth-century British literature who focuses on interdisciplinary and intermedial research in material and visual culture, architectural and landscape design history,  textual materiality, book history, manuscript and print studies, and the history of subjectivity. She brings to her role at Penn State a rich background as an author and editor of several books, articles and essays, a teacher of undergraduate and graduate-level courses in English literature and book history, and a curator of rare books and manuscripts.

Her second book, My Dark Room, which examines the spaces of solitude and enclosure that gave eighteenth-century British subjects closer access to their inner worlds, will be published in 2023 by the University of Chicago Press. Her first book, The Self and It (Stanford University Press, 2010), is an investigation of inanimate objects made to look human–dolls, puppets, automata–and their vital roles as media for self-fashioning in eighteenth-century England. Recent interdisciplinary collections she has edited that bring together literary scholars, cultural historians, and art and architectural historians working across a range of historical periods include Getting Perspective, a special issue for Word and Image, and Organic Supplements: Bodies and Things of the Natural World, 1580-1790 (University of Virginia Press, 2021).

Her current book project, Writing’s Maker, studies the materiality of life-writing in eighteenth-century England’s multimedia forms and formats of self-inscription: commonplace books, pocket diaries, extra-illustrated books and handwriting itself. It has been supported by funding from the Bibliographical Society of America, the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, and the Dunscombe Colt Research Fellowship in Architectural History and Material Culture at the Bodleian Library. Research awards she received for prior projects include major fellowships and grants from the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Huntington Library, the Howard Foundation, and UCLA’s Center for 17th- and 18th-Century Studies and William Andrews Clark Memorial Library.

She has been invited to lecture and share her research at such institutions as the University of Sydney, the University of Edinburgh, the Freie University Berlin, Columbia University, Wake Forest University, Harvard University, and the Center for Book Arts. Past exhibitions she has curated include The Interactive Book and Portable Devices (featuring notebooks as early information storage tools), both at the New York University Libraries Special Collections Center. She has served as an editor of the prize-winning peer-reviewed journal Eighteenth-Century Fiction and is on the Advisory Board of The Papers of the Bibliographical Society of America.

Resources for research in the College Park and Washington D.C. area are unsurpassed. The University's libraries hold around 2,500,000 volumes. In addition to the outstanding holdings of the Library of Congress, the area also offers the specialized resources of the National Archives and Archives II (located on the grounds of the University of Maryland); the Smithsonian Institution; the National Museum of Women in the Arts; and a broad array of public policy organizations and "think-tanks" plus the many research and policy institutes that include gender, race, and sexuality issues as part of their agenda. We are also member institution of the Consortium of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area, a unique collaboration of D.C. area colleges and universities that promotes cross-institutional learning.

The University of Maryland Consortium on Race, Gender and Ethnicity offers grant-getting potential and otherwise supports the research endeavors of faculty and graduate students in these fields. Grants funded through the Consortium will provide additional funding for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies graduate students and invaluable research experience. High enrollment demand in the department's undergraduate courses provides yet another opportunity for funding graduate students' programs of study with teaching assistantships.
