PhD funding: School of English, University of Leicester, UK

A PhD fee-waiver scholarship in the School of English at the University of Leicester is available for a research student. PhD proposals should be in the area Restoration and Early Eighteenth-Century Literature, or The History of the Book in the Early Modern Period.

The award is for a student registering in October 2011 and covers fees up to £3,732 (the equivalent of Home/EU fees) for 3 years. Only new PhD students are eligible. The financial package covers full-time Home/EU fees only, but international and part-time students are encouraged to apply. Successful international students would themselves pay the difference between the Home/EU fee award and the international fee. Details can be found at
