The Faculty of Education and Society, Department of Culture
is offering one fully funded Humanities Studentship (full fees and maintenance grant at
Research Council rate) for a suitably qualified candidate. Applicants should already
possess a very good BA Honours degree. A relevant Masters qualification would be an
additional advantage. The scholarships are funded by the Culture and Regional Studies Beacon.
Applications are invited in the following areas:
English Literature, Linguistics and Creative Writing
History
Politics
Languages (MFL, TESOL, EAP)
University of Sunderland students who are graduating, summer
2014, and MA students who will complete their degrees in September 2014 are especially
encouraged to apply. Previous applicants for studentships advertised earlier this year may
re-apply. Unfortunately students already studying on a PhD programme are ineligible.
Closing date: 31 August 2014
Notifications and Interview dates: 12 September 2014
Start date: 1 October 2014 (this is fixed and
non-negotiable)
