Eligibility

Studentships will start on 1 October 2023 and consist of an annual tax-free stipend of approx £17,668 (this is the 22/23 rate as 23/24 rates are yet to be confirmed). In addition, full-time tuition fees will be covered for the length of the funding period. Please see the South, West and Wales Doctoral Training Partnership Student-led Awards for further details.

The full award only covers the UK rate tuition fees, so UWE Bristol will cover the difference between the UK rate and the international fees for successful UWE Bristol international candidates.

Please see the South, West and Wales Doctoral Training Partnership eligibility and residency guidelines.
