[ecrea] Department of Theatre, Film & Television PhD Bursary, University of York

*Departmental PhD Bursary *

* *


The Department of Theatre, Film & Television at the University of York 
invites applications for a bursary for PhD students. The bursary is 
worth £5,000 per annum for a period of three years and will commence in 
October 2014.

* *

*Eligibility*

Applicants must be in receipt of an offer for a full-time place on one 
of the Department’s two PhD programmes: PhD in Theatre, Film and 
Television; PhD in Theatre, Film and Television by Creative Practice. 
Normally, they must also begin their studies in October 2014.


This bursary is open to all home, EU and International applicants. 
However, anyone already in receipt of a full doctoral research 
studentship (e.g. AHRC, Commonwealth Scholarship Commission etc.) is 
ineligible. Similarly an applicant who subsequently secures such a 
studentship would no longer be eligible for the bursary.

*Criteria*

The key criteria for the awarding of these bursaries will be a 
combination of proven academic excellence, the potential for 
contribution to the research culture of the department and financial need.

*How to apply*

Applicants should submit the following to Helen Dowson, Departmental 
Postgraduate Administrator, (helen.dowson /at/ york.ac.uk) 
<mailto:(helen.dowson /at/ york.ac.uk)> no later than 5:00pm on Friday 30^th May:
