The HRC announces a competition for 3 internal Doctoral Fellows. Each Fellow will receive a research budget of £400 and a conference budget of £600 to organise a one-day interdisciplinary Post-Graduate Conference during the academic year 2014-2015.

Fellowships are intended to enhance work on a PhD. Fellows can draw on their research budget for all reasonable expenses related to their PhD research, including travel to conferences, collections and purchase of books/DVDs. Fellows will organise a post-graduate one-day conference on a topic close to the area of their dissertation, bringing together scholars working in their field.

This is a one-year Fellowship and is not renewable. It is open to full-time and part-time students whose dissertations are being supervised in the Arts Faculty and Philosophy, including those holding other University and British Academy awards. If you will have completed at least one, but not more than two full-time years (or part-time equivalent) of Doctoral research by 1 October 2014, you are eligible to apply.

The closing date is 11.00 am on Thursday 6th February 2014
