About this position
The University of Oxford Department invites applications for DPhil Studentships starting in October 2027.
These fully funded doctoral studentships support research in internationally renowned programmes focused on the causes and treatments of psychiatric illness, spanning the translational spectrum. Projects may sit within any of the department’s research domains or cross several domains, making this an attractive opportunity for applicants with interests in mental health, psychology, neuroscience, and clinically oriented research.
The studentships are open to outstanding applicants from any country. Applicants should have, or expect to gain, at least an upper second class honours degree in an appropriate subject. The Department strongly advises prospective students to contact potential supervisors before applying in order to discuss a possible project or to refine an applicant-led proposal.
Funding is provided through the Clarendon Fund, the Academic Futures programme, and other sources. The stipend will be at least £22,460 per annum tax-free, with additional support for conference attendance and consumables. Oxford also highlights access to extensive research resources, including libraries, laboratories, and specialist facilities.
Applications should be submitted through the University’s formal procedure. The deadline is 1 December 2026 at 12:00 midday UK time, with interviews expected during the week commencing 11 January 2027. For enquiries, contact [email protected].
