UK Black and Global Majority Studentships in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences 2025-26

The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Queen Mary University of London offers fully funded postgraduate taught studentships to talented UK applicants from Black and Global Majority backgrounds. These studentships are designed to increase representation and opportunities for UK Black and Global Majority students who wish to pursue postgraduate degrees in the Humanities, recognizing that funding opportunities at the PGT level are particularly limited and may inhibit these students from undertaking doctoral research and following an academic career. Since 2019-20, the faculty has been offering these studentships to support graduates of Queen Mary who wish to pursue a Master's degree in any of the Primary Research Areas covered by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). The studentships include a full fee waiver and a stipend to cover living costs of £18,062. A minimum of two studentships will be awarded specifically to Black British students, as these students are disproportionately under-represented among Queen Mary home postgraduates in the Humanities. Applicants must be UK permanent residents from a Black and Global Majority background, eligible to pay UK student fees, and graduates of Queen Mary (or in their graduating year). Eligible courses include any full-time Master's programme offered by the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in disciplines covered by the AHRC, except LLM and MSc degrees in Law and Legal Studies. The studentships cover all tuition fees and provide living expenses for the full duration of the programme and cannot be deferred.

UK BAME PhD Studentships

The Queen Mary Faculty of Science and Engineering and the Doctoral College is inviting applications for Doctoral Research Studentships from UK candidates from underrepresented groups (e.g., Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic) in research in the UK. Up to 3 PhD studentships are being offered and will be awarded on the basis of the excellence of the applicant. The competition is part of a wider set of measures being implemented to increase the participation of students from UK underrepresented groups at PGR level conducting research at QMUL. The proposed research topic must fit within the strategic research areas and remits in the faculty of Science and Engineering at QMUL. Studentships will be awarded to the most outstanding candidates applying for a full-time or part-time PhD programme starting in autumn 2026. Awards are tenable for up to 3.5 years, and cover tuition fees and a maintenance stipend at the QMUL rate (approximately £21,874 per annum full-time, £10,937 part-time for 2025/26). The studentship provides full fee waiver and generous living stipend to support doctoral research in Science and Engineering fields.

EPSRC Doctoral Landscape Award 2026/27: Electronic & Electrical Engineering - Carrier transport modelling in group-IV SiGeSn quantum well semiconductor lasers

This PhD research opportunity focuses on carrier transport modelling in multiple quantum well (MQW) laser structures using group-IV SiGeSn semiconductors. The project aims to advance the development of electrically pumped lasers operating at room temperature, which would enable monolithic integration of group-IV based photonics and CMOS technology. The research will model carrier trapping and transport in quantum wells to achieve homogeneous distribution of electrons and holes across MQW structures, using methodologies adapted from III-V semiconductor lasers. The work involves calculating electronic structures of SiGeSn-based MQWs and designing optimal well and barrier configurations within practical material composition constraints. This represents a pathway toward overcoming the indirect bandgap limitation of conventional silicon and germanium semiconductors for large-scale optoelectronics integration.

Functional data analysis with informative missingness (UK Only)

This PhD research project focuses on developing functional principal component analysis (FPCA) and multivariate FPCA (MFPCA) frameworks for functional data with informative missingness. The increasing availability of extensive datasets with variables measured over a continuum has opened new frontiers in research across disciplines. These datasets, known as functional data, are prevalent in fields ranging from environmental monitoring and education to biomedical sciences and engineering. However, analysing such data remains challenging due to their high dimensionality, multivariate structure, and critically, the presence of missingness that is not completely at random. This project aims to fill the gap by developing advanced statistical methods to handle informative missingness in functional data analysis. Real-world datasets often suffer from different types of informative missingness, and applying FPCA or MFPCA without accounting for these issues can lead to biased results, misrepresenting relationships among variables and undermining downstream analyses such as prediction, classification, and decision-making. The application will be within biomedical studies, such as Alzheimer's disease and scleroderma. The position offers a highly competitive EPSRC Doctoral Landscape Award providing full academic fees, together with a tax-free maintenance grant at the standard UKRI rate (£20,780 in academic session 2025/26) for 3.5 years. Training and support will also be provided, and candidates will be automatically considered for a School of Mathematics Scholarship.
