[image: PhD studentship copy.jpg]
Birmingham City University is currently accepting applications for 20 fully funded PhD studentships through its inaugural Vice Chancellor’s scheme . Among them is an opportunity for the following project:
‘Forming Futures: exploring historic and contemporary forms of state science fiction and anticipation through creative practice’
Supervisors: Dr. Theo Reeves-Evison, Prof. Becky Shaw and Prof. Peter Larkham.
More details on the research questions, anticipated findings and application process can be found here
.
The successful applicant will be part of a thriving postgraduate community at BCU and financially supported through a fee waiver and a tax free stipend payable the same rate as UK Research Council funded studentships (£19,237 a year for 2024/25) for up to 42 months full time.
The opportunity is open to national and international students and has an emphasis on practice-based research. Applications are therefore welcome from those wishing to develop their creative practice in the context of a doctoral research project.
Deadline for applications: 30th April 2024
Online Q&A sessions bookable through the BCU website
on Tuesday 16 April and 23 April 2024 (both 10-11am BST)
