Imperial College PhD Scholarship Scheme

Last date : April 28, 2014
The Imperial College PhD Scholarship Scheme offers an outstanding opportunity for potential PhD students. If you are a high performing undergraduate or Master’s student, and have a strong desire to undertake a PhD programme at a world class research institution, you could be selected to receive full tuition fees and a generous stipend for a PhD place at Imperial College London.
The Scheme aims to provide up to 50 research students with great potential the opportunity to work within their chosen research field with the support of an excellent supervisor.
If you are a member of Imperial staff looking for information on the scheme see the Research Strategy site.

Funding

  1. Successful candidates will receive funding for fees and a stipend of £20,200 per annum for up to 3.5 years.
  2. Scholars will have access to a programme of career development and cohort activities delivered by a combination of their host department and the Graduate School.
  3. Support will be available to allow a high degree of interaction with other researchers (at other HEIs in the UK and abroad) and research users.  This will provide valuable opportunities for networking and collaboration.

Eligibility

  1. Applications are accepted from talented candidates from Imperial College London, the UK and worldwide. There are no restrictions on nationality.
  2. Candidates must be among the highest achievers in their undergraduate cohort, and in receipt of, or due to receive a first class UK degree or equivalent.

  4. Candidates with degrees from overseas institutions are strongly urged to determine if their scores/grades are equivalent to the relevant eligibility criteria.
  5. Prior to applying candidates must have made contact with a supervisor in an academic department at Imperial College London who has agreed to supervise their research project. Please note that supervisors are only permitted to supervise one scholar at any time. Please review this list of existing supervisors who are not available to supervise a student on this scholarship scheme.
