60 PhD studentships available at the University of Exeter
These PhD studentships are now available across the arts and humanities, social sciences, business, and sciences, and cover all fees and a maintenance grant for three years. Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Research at the University of Exeter, Professor Stephen Rippon, says, “We undertake leading research and take pride in providing an exceptional experience for our PhD researchers. This in turn is reflected back through the commitment, enthusiasm and integrity of our students. “During the last Research Assessment Exercise, we rose up the rankings more than any other university and against the current economic tide, our research income and reputation continues to grow. Last year we won the largest number of research grants from the AHRC nationally, and our new partnership with the Universities of Bristol and Bath to form the ESRC-funded South West Doctoral Training Centre places us at the forefront of world class research in the social sciences. Our increasing strength in science and technology is reflected by the doubling of awards granted from the BBSRC in the last year. “All this means that we can offer talented PhD researchers funding for their studies in conjunction with a dynamic and exciting research environment, where research students make a real impact in extending our knowledge and developing new ideas.” The University of Exeter has a strong reputation, and is currently ranked 10th in the Times Good University Guide 2012.
