[ecrea] AHRC Midlands4Cities funding for UK/EU students at DMU's Cinema and Television History Research Institute

The AHRC-funded Midlands4Cities Doctoral Training Partnership 
<https://www.midlands4cities.ac.uk/midlands4cities.aspx> (M4C) brings 
together eight leading universities across the Midlands to support the 
professional and personal development of the next generation of arts and 
humanities doctoral researchers. M4C is a collaboration between the 
University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University, University of 
Warwick, Coventry University, University of Leicester, De Montfort 
University, Nottingham Trent University and The University of Nottingham.

M4C is awarding up to 80 doctoral studentships for UK/EU applicants for 
2019 through an open competition and 12 Collaborative Doctoral Awards 
(CDA) through a linked competition with a range of partner 
organisations in the cultural, creative and heritage sector.

The Cinema and Television History Research Institute (CATHI) is a centre 
of excellence in archival screen heritage. It specialises in 
evidence-based and oral history methods to inform ground-breaking 
interdisciplinary research and RCUK-funded international collaborations. 
CATHI is home to the cross-faculty Centre for Adaptations and houses a 
growing number of unique collections including the Hammer Script 
Archive, the Norman Wisdom Archive and the Peter Whitehead Archive. We 
host the annual UK Asian Film Festival, the BFI British Silent Film 
Festival and the post-graduate conference CATHICon, and promote 
practice-based research via the DocHub@DMU. CATHI invites applications
