Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Doctoral Studentships

The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) supports research in particle physics, astronomy, astrophysics, nuclear physics, and solar system science through postgraduate doctoral studentships. Most studentships are awarded on the basis of Doctoral Training Partnerships made to Schools at the University of Edinburgh. STFC offers postgraduate funding for Doctoral Training Partnerships, which are awarded via an algorithm method, as well as a number of awards which are available in collaboration with industry - Industrial CASE Studentships and Industrial CASE-Plus Studentships - which are awarded on a peer-reviewed project basis. Candidates should not apply directly to STFC but rather should indicate that they wish to be considered for a studentship on their postgraduate application form to the University of Edinburgh.
