Peregrine Maitland Studentship

The Peregrine Maitland Studentship is a doctoral funding opportunity offered by the Faculty of Divinity at the University of Cambridge for students pursuing a PhD in Theology and Religious Studies. This studentship provides £16,000 annually for three years to support both fees and maintenance costs. The award is specifically designated for postgraduate students whose research concerns the study of subjects arising from or affecting the spread of the Christian Religion, the comparison of the Christian Religion with other religions, and the contact of Christian and other civilisations. One studentship is available for the 2026/27 academic year, awarded on the basis of academic merit. The studentship is available for both full-time and part-time study modes, with a fixed duration of three years and no extension available.
