Applications for a place to study for a PhD (and Master’s, if required) must be submitted to UEA using the University of East Anglia online application form by Wednesday 24 January 2024.

A separate application to SENSS for studentship funding must be made by midday on Friday 9 February 2024 via the SENSS online application platform. Your supervisor’s supporting statement must also be completed and submitted by this deadline.

To apply, you will need a PhD research proposal and the support of a UEA PhD supervisor. Assistance with this is available through the support team or UEA SeNSS pathway leads. Early contact with supervisors is encouraged so that there is plenty of time to perfect the research proposal ahead of the winter application deadlines. Please note that SeNSS-funded 1+3 students can only undertake Masters courses currently approved by SeNSS.

BENEFIT:

These Economic and Social Research Council studentships will cover your tuition fees and pay you a stipend, as well as access to funds to support your proposed research and training. Additional funds are available for students needing additional support with their studies because of a disability or long-term health condition.
