About this position
The Midlands Graduate School (MGS) brings together eight universities across the Midlands to provide doctoral training in the social sciences and interdisciplinary research areas. Through its Doctoral Training Partnership at the University of Nottingham, the programme offers ESRC-funded PhD studentships for applicants interested in advanced social science research.
The doctoral training environment combines research study with structured training and broader support opportunities. Applicants can explore a wide range of social science disciplines and interdisciplinary projects, learn about doctoral study from current researchers, and understand how the partnership supports postgraduate researchers during their PhD.
The opportunity is suitable for people considering doctoral study after an undergraduate degree, applicants who already hold a Master's degree, and those returning to education. An online applicant briefing session provides information about the Midlands Graduate School, the University of Nottingham partnership, the application process, funding and training, and the experiences of current doctoral researchers.
