About this opportunity

These awards replace the PhD studentships previously offered by the Scottish Graduate School for Arts and Humanities. The Scottish Graduate School for Arts and Humanities will provide Doctoral Landscape Award holders with additional PhD training and Cohort Development opportunities during the studentship. The University of Edinburgh is offering 3 doctoral studentships for 2026/2027, open to students in eligible disciplinary panels including Media, Communications, Cultural Policy, Film and TV, Library and Information Studies; Philosophy; and Theology, Divinity & Religions.
