Enhanced 5-year Leverhulme Trust PhD Studentships at the University of Kent
University of Kent -Centre for the Political Economies of International Commerce
The Centre for the Political Economies of International Commerce within the School of History at the University of Kent will offer two enhanced PhD studentships to work as part of a Leverhulme Grant team over five years. The team will be lead by Dr Will Pettigrew. This team will examine the seventeenth century histories of England's overseas trade companies in their domestic and global settings. For more information about the proposed project see:
www.kent.ac.uk/history/projects/global-determinants
The studentships are available to UK, EU, and non-EU students and will cover tuition fees plus a maintenance bursary of £13,590 per year as well as a substantial research budget and participation in a series of international conferences from 2013 to 2018. Subject to satisfactory progress these studentships will convert into two-year post-doctoral research fellowships at an appreciably higher salary.
Applications should consist of:
- An up-to-date CV
- A covering letter explaining your interest in the project and the contribution you would make to the research team (including a statement about your proposed research project). This letter must include the applicant's full name, address, telephone number and email address
- A response (of up to 500 words) to the following question: What can the history of England's overseas trading corporations teach us about world history in the seventeenth century?
- A response (of up to 500 words) to the following question: How might the team format for this grant (to include 1 lecturer, 2 post-doctoral fellows, 2 Phd students, and a part-time administrator) best secure a lasting return on the Leverhulme Trust's large (£820,000) investment in this project?
- Applicants should ensure that two academic referees reach the School of History at Kent by the deadline
- Applicants must also make separate application to the PhD programme at Kent for entry in September 2013. Please visit Kent's postgraduate pages for further details.
The deadline for receipt of completed applications (including application to the PhD programme) is 28 March 2013. Interviews will be held in Canterbury on 10 April. Informal enquiries about the studentships and the project may be made to Dr Will Pettigrew: w.pettigrew@kent.ac.uk. Completed application forms should be sent by email to Juliette Dack: J.C.Dack@kent.ac.uk via the Apply button below.
