[Commlist] McCune Smith PhD Fellowships for British-African and British-West Indian students

The University of Glasgow has twelve fully funded PhD fellowships for 
students wishing to pursue doctoral studies at the university who are 
resident in the United Kingdom or citizens of the United Kingdom with 
black or mixed African/West India heritage. These scholarships are 
tenable within the University of Glasgow's Sociology department working 
with the Glasgow University Media Group and colleagues in political 
communication. Appointment is for a three year term of research.

Further details on the scheme can be found at the following link

Students wishing to apply for the scheme should have a clear idea about 
what research they wish to pursue and evidence of a strong record in the 
fields of sociology or communication, or alternatively clear potential 
to move into the field through their doctoral study. The Glasgow 
University Media Group specialises in environmental and climate 
communication, critical sociology of media, race, public interest 
journalism, and the African media.

Prospective students can find staff profiles and contact potential

N.B. This fellowship is unfortunately not available to students from 
South Asian, East Asian or other non-white backgrounds, but the 
University of Glasgow welcomes applicants from minority groups both 
within and beyond Scotland and the United Kingdom and other funding 
options are available for students from beyond the scholarship target group.
