About this position
ESRC SENSS student-led PhD studentship competition is now open for projects in social science and coastal health inequalities. The opportunity is linked to the Centre for Coastal Communities and the Institute of Public Health and Wellbeing at the University of Essex, within the South and East Network for Social Sciences Doctoral Training Partnership.
This is a prestigious fully funded PhD studentship lasting 3.5–4 years. Fees are paid and the stipend/salary is between £21,805 and £23,805 per year. The competition particularly welcomes proposals in Data Skills, Advanced Quantitative Methods (AQM), and/or Interdisciplinarity, and interdisciplinary or mixed-methods projects are encouraged.
Research ideas may focus on social determinants of health inequalities at individual or area level, especially in coastal communities. The post mentions the poster’s expertise in life course and longitudinal quantitative methods, which may be useful for applicants considering quantitative or mixed-methods supervision discussions.
SENSS is especially keen to receive applications from candidates who meet equality and diversity criteria, including those from particular ethnic backgrounds, those who grew up in less affluent areas, applicants with disabilities, carers, and people who were in care as children.
Interested applicants should consult the SENSS student-led webpage for full guidance, the application form, and registration links, then prepare and submit a proposal through the competition process.
