ACU Routledge/Round Table Commonwealth Studentships Program 2023/2024 for Ph.D. Students (GBP 5,500 award)

The ACU Routledge/Round Table Commonwealth PhD studentships provide support for research projects on Commonwealth-related themes.

Two studentships are available each year, to the maximum value of £5,500 GBP each:

• One for students registered at UK universities
• One for students registered at universities in other Commonwealth countries

Applications are welcomed from a broad range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences, but preference may be given to disciplines usually covered by the Round Table journal, including (but not exclusively) politics, international relations, economics, international history, geography, law, development studies, and area studies.

Applications in the pure sciences and medicine will not be considered, but studies relating to science and health policies are welcomed.

Proposed research must:

• relate to the Commonwealth as a whole or to any Commonwealth-wide institution or organisation, or
• have a Commonwealth comparative aspect, or
• be of relevance to more than one Commonwealth country.

Requirements:

The first studentship is open to registered PhD students from UK universities, although not necessarily UK citizens.

The second is open to registered PhD students from ACU member universities in Commonwealth counties other than the UK, and to Chevening and Commonwealth Scholarship alumni who are PhD students at any Commonwealth university outside the UK.

Duration and Benefits: £4,000 GB will be paid on the announcement of the awards. The remaining £1,500 GBP will be paid on completion of the post-studentship requirements.
