The studentships are tenable for 3.5 years full-time (subject to satisfactory progress) and will cover the cost of tuition fees at UK rates together with a maintenance grant (£15,285 per year 2020/21 rates) for eligible applicants.

The studentships are open to international applicants, however international applicants will be required to pay the difference between the UK and international tuition fee rate.
The successful applicants will be required to comply with the terms of the funding.
