How to apply
The application information below summarizes the captured scholarship source. Review the provider page before submitting.
- Choose the advertised PhD project you are applying for and identify its Project ID and lead supervisor; the Project ID is at the bottom of each project advert. Required
- Prepare the application documents to attach directly to the email: a separate cover letter addressed to the project supervisor; a document answering the three supplementary questions (why the project interests you and why you are a strong candidate; how you might develop or approach it, about 300–500 words; and how the PhD would contribute to your future research, creative practice or career); an up-to-date CV including your current permanent address; clear degree certificates and transcripts, if available; evidence of settled or pre-settled status, if applicable; and two academic/professional references. For the references, either provide copies or have referees email them directly, including your full name and project; references are ideally received before interview, although the source acknowledges this may not be possible during summer break. If relevant to the project, optionally include a link to a digital portfolio. Required
- Submit the application by email to pgrc-studentships@abdn.ac.uk. Use the subject format “Project ID – [Your Name]” (the source gives “NHT_UOA_BH – Joe Bloggs” as an example). In the email body, include the project title, lead supervisor’s name, and whether you are a Home/UK or international student; include no other information in the body. Attach the application documents directly to the email; they may be combined or sent as individual attachments, and files from external sources cannot be downloaded by the recipient. Required
