Description:
The University of Sheffield is offering 15 postgraduate studentships for
students in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities: eight cover UK/EU fees and offer
a maintenance award at the Research Council rate of £13,290; seven cover UK/EU
fees and offer a maintenance award at 50% of the Research Council rate, i.e. £6,645.
Applicants for research degrees (M.Phil. and Ph.D.) in the Department of Russian
and Slavonic Studies may apply, subject to eligibility, for these awards. For
more information, follow the link below.

Please note that in order to be considered for a University of Sheffield
studentship, you must first apply to the University for admission to an
appropriate programme of study.
Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) funding
AHRC-funded studentships will be available either through the AHRC's Studentship
Competition, or through a Block Grant Partnership (BGP) whereby the University
will have an allocated number of studentships in specified subject areas and for
specified schemes -- Research Preparation Masters (RPM), Professional
Preparation Masters (PPM), and Doctoral.
The University has applied for a BGP and will know the outcome on 23 February
2009. If the application is successful, the BGP will allow the University to
award, on a competitive basis and subject to AHRC approval, studentships to
prospective postgraduate students. EU nationals accepted to study on programmes
and in subject areas for which BGP studentships have been allocated will be
eligible for nomination to AHRC. Information about the outcome of the BGP
Competition will be posted on this web page and elsewhere. The University hopes
that, when the outcome of its application is known, it will be able to offer a
number of Doctoral awards in the subject area of Russian, Slavonic and Eastern
European Language and Culture over the period covered by the first round of the
Scheme (2009-2013). If the University is not awarded a BGP allocation, students
who have already been admitted to the University to study can still apply to the
AHRC Studentship Competition for funding.
It is possible for applicants for University of Sheffield studentships to
indicate their interest now in being considered for AHRC awards.
Students who wish to be considered for AHRC-funded studentships in this subject
area must apply to the University no later than 31 March 2009.
Please note that in order to be considered for a University of Sheffield or AHRC
studentship, you must first apply to the University for admission to an
appropriate programme of study.
