The University’s School of Humanities is funding a PhD studentship available to BME applicants.
The University of Westminster has one of the most diverse student bodies in the UK, with a high percentage of Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) students. Yet BME students remain relatively under-represented at the higher levels of research, with a significantly lower proportion of BME doctoral students.
As part of our ongoing effort to ensure equal access to research opportunities within our subject areas, the School of Humanities intends to fund a full studentship including a fee waiver at the 'home' fee rate for a PhD student starting their studies in January 2021, which will be available to BME applicants only.
Deadline for PhD student applications is Friday 16 October.
