Postgraduate Positions
Fully-Funded PhD Studentships
Every year the school receives an allocation of funded studentships from the Northern Ireland Department for the Economy (DfE) for UK students, which can include provision for a small number of fully-funded international studentships. These studentships, which cover tuition fees, stipend and a contribution to running costs, are allocated through a competitive process, with applicants shortlisted and interviewed. All UK Applicants will be automatically considered for these studentships and international students with no other funding can request that they be considered for DfE support. However, international DfE studentships are extremely competitive and applicants should indicate that they wish to be considered for DfE support on their application form. Terms and conditions for DfE funding are available here: DfE Research Eligibility Guidance Notes
Where funding has been secured for a PhD studentship, for example CAST studentships, this will be stated clearly in the PhD advert
