De Montfort University PhD Scholarships

De Montfort University (DMU) is offering 3-year PhD scholarships (pro rata for part-time study), covering Home fees, and including a stipend of £15,840 per annum. The scholarships are aligned with our five thematic areas – one scholarship award will be made per theme. The scholarships take effect from 1 October 2022. International applicants will be required to meet the difference in Home and International fees.

DMU’s research themes (Creative and Heritage Industries; Lifelong Wellbeing; Living in a Digital Society; Net Zero; and Peace, Equality and Social Justice) have underpinned our achievements over the last three years and reflect our commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and to value- and contemporary challenge-led research. By arranging our research thematically, we aim to provide an environment which breaks down boundaries and supports collaborative thinking and working so that our research themes can flourish and make a significant impact on the global stage.

Initial applications must be submitted on the DMU Scholarship Application Form and must include:

A CV attachment.
Details of the proposed research project and how it relates to one or more of DMU’s five thematic areas (DMU Scholarship Application Form).
Name of a potential De Montfort University supervisor (please indicate if contact has been made on the DMU Scholarship Application Form).
