Applications are now invited for the Bursary Competition 2007. These are the only funded studentships QMU offers. Research at Queen Margaret University (QMU) awards two higher degrees by research, Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Master of Philosophy (MPhil). Research methods training is offered in the first semester but after that there are no taught elements as such - students are expected to manage their own research project, with guidance from a supervisor. Bursaries cover all tuition fees and provide help with living costs for three years (the prescribed period of study for a PhD). Bursaries are only available for PhD study based at Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh. The closing date for applications is 26 March 2007. No applications will be accepted after that date.
