Funding for research projects may be available from the University and through external sources such as research councils, government agencies, charities and industry.
Vice Chancellor's PhD Studentships
Nottingham Trent University has an outstanding reputation for our commitment to research that shapes lives and society. As part of our continued pledge to invest in research excellence each year we offer a number of PhD Studentships. The closing date has now passed for entry in 2012/13. The competition for 2013/14 will be announced shortly.
Research bursaries
In addition to this competition, many Schools within the University may offer their own bursaries for research students, either on a fees-only basis or with a tax free maintenance allowance. To find out more visit our research studentships webpage.
Research Councils
Public funding for postgraduate students in the UK is mainly provided by Research Councils. Most research councils do not make awards directly to students, but instead to the University. Further information about how to access these opportunities is available from within your School.
Other funding opportunities
Apart from the sources already mentioned, postgraduate studies at NTU are also funded by a variety of external organisations including governmental agencies, charities and industry.
