ERC-funded PhD Studentship in Psychology – “The psychological causes and consequences of social inequality”

About the Project

Applications are invited for a 3-year PhD studentship with Dr Nikhil Sengupta in the Psychology and Public Policy Research Unit (PSYPOL) at the University of Kent, funded by the European Research Council (ERC). The studentship commences in Sept 2023.

Funding

This studentship is suitable for applicants who have or will have a Master’s degree or equivalent at merit or distinction level in Psychology or another relevant subject area by June 2023.

The studentship award covers your tuition fees at the Home rate (£4,500 per annum correct as of 2021-22*) and additionally provides you with a stipend (£15,609 per annum correct as of 2021-22*) for maintenance. This level of financial support is guaranteed to the awardee, subject to performance, however, additional support may be available for international applicants in particular circumstances.

*when announced, we will make you aware of the stipend approved for 2023/24.

Eligibility

The competition is open to applicants of all student fee paying statuses; however, this studentship guarantees coverage of fees at the Home rate only, with the possibility of additional support for international applicants in particular circumstances. This means that EU and International students may be required to make up the difference, or a proportion of the difference, in fees.

Please note that current Kent PhD students are not eligible for this award.
