Dear Colleagues,
We have an ESRC-funded Studentship available here at King's from October 2008 advertised in the Guardian today (1st July). I would be grateful if you could bring this opportunity to the attention of any potential applicants.
The studentship is available as either a 1+3 award or as a +3 award for candidates who already have completed ESRC-recognized research training - standard ESRC eligibility criteria apply.
Thanks
Jeremy
