PhD Funding

SASP Doctoral Studentship

In 2013/14, SASP will be awarding at least one FULL DOCTORAL STUDENTSHIP, which covers both maintenance at the AHRC rate and a full fee waiver (at Home/EU fee level) for THREE years.  The Home/EU fee waiver can be awarded to an Overseas fee-paying student, who will then be required to meet the remainder of the tuition fee personally. 

AHRC Studentships

SASP will support students in their applications for AHRC studentships. 

600th Anniversary PhD Scholarships

Philosophy PhD Students who intend to commence their studies in September 2013 will be eligible to apply for a 600th Anniversary Scholarship.  The deadline for applications for these scholarships is 18 January 2013.  Please see the full details of the 600th Anniversary PhD Scholarships.

Application Deadline for Funding

If you wish to be considered for any SASP funding, please indicate clearly in your application whether you are a Home, EU or Overseas applicant. Only applications received before the deadline of 25 January 2013 will be considered for funding. We hope to allocate funding on or soon after 11 March 2013.

Other PhD Scholarship Support

The University of St Andrews has various scholarship opportunities for postgraduate students.  Please see full details of internal and external funding sources. Additional information provided by the University of Stirling can be found under 'Funding for further study' and 'Sources of Funding'.

Tutoring Opportunities

The SASP programme provides opportunities for suitably-qualified postgraduate research students, with the consent of their supervisor, to deliver tutorials on sub-honours modules. The allocation of teaching responsibilities is dependent on varying factors and SASP is not in a position to be able to guarantee that all postgraduate research students will be provided with teaching experience during their period of study.  It is important to note that it is not possible for a postgraduate research student to fully support themselves.

MLitt Funding

Philosophy Quarterly Bursaries

SASP will be funding a number of bursaries for students in the MLitt programme in 2013/14 courtesy of generous funding provided by the Philosophy Quarterly.

Applicants who wish to be considered for an award should submit their application by 15 March 2013.
