AHRC studentship in Politics and International Relations

PhD studentships are offered through the AHRC-funded Midlands4Cities Doctoral Training Partnership (M4C), which brings together eight leading universities across the Midlands to support the professional and personal development of the next generation of arts and humanities doctoral researchers. M4C is a collaboration between the University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University, University of Warwick, Coventry University, University of Leicester, De Montfort University, Nottingham Trent University and the University of Nottingham.

Successful applicants will join a team of PhD researchers in the School of Politics and International Relations. You can find out more about our staff, their research interests and current doctoral supervision by consulting these pages, as well as the pages of individual academics.

M4C studentships can be undertaken full-time and part-time. A full-time Open Doctoral Award receives three and a half years funding as standard; a full-time Collaborative Doctoral Award receives four years funding (a maximum of seven years and eight years respectively for part-time study).
