The bursaries are offered on a full-time basis and cover a maintenance award
and fee payments (at the UK/EU rate). The Scholarships are for three years,
subject to satisfactory progress.

The level of the maintenance element of the Scholarships is linked to the
level of corresponding awards made by UK research councils and is subject to
regular review. Maintenance payments for 2012/13 are £15,590 per annum
(including London weighting). The studentship bursaries are free of both tax
and national insurance contributions.

In addition to work on the doctoral research project, successful applicants
will be expected to contribute to associated activities within the School.
