Scholarship applicants must have been accepted to the programme and have
previously discussed their funding application with the Director of
Postgraduate Studies: Dr Kristine Horner (k.horner at sheffield.ac.uk). 

We will advise you on the studentship opportunities: they require a subsequent
application form (1 per scheme) to follow up on the application to the PhD
programme:

1) The White Rose College of the Arts & Humanities (WRoCAH) is a Doctoral
Training Partnership of the Universities of Leeds, Sheffield and York. It is
responsible for the distribution of AHRC-funded doctoral studentships for
these universities and for the coordination of a doctoral training programme.
WRoCAH is able to offer over 50 AHRC studentships per year to candidates with
a place for doctoral study at the Universities of Leeds, Sheffield or York.
Applicants for an AHRC studentship must have applied for a place of study in
an eligible School, Department or Centre and may only apply for funding at one
of Leeds, Sheffield or York. The studentship application form and details of
how to apply will be available from the WRoCAH website in November:
http://wrocah.ac.uk/new-student/ahrc-competition/

2) Applications for the University Prize and Doctoral Academy scholarships at
the University of Sheffield are also invited and further details about all of
them may be found here:
http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/postgraduate/research/scholarships

You are warmly invited to attend our next University Postgraduate Open Day on
18 November. At that time, you can also make arrangements to meet relevant
staff and discuss your application. Further details may be found here:
