Match Funded Studentships 

 

Open for applications until 23:59 on 1^st July 2019, or until the money is spent (whichever comes first). This competition will be run on a first come first serve basis with applications being assessed and awarded ad-hoc.

The conditions for Fast Track, match funding applications are as follows:

• Project must be at least 50% match funded: £9,630 p.a. 50% of £4,260 (fee) + 50% of £15,000 (stipend) = £9,630
• PGR applicant must have UK/EU funding status and must meet the entry requirements
• Oct 2019 start date.

Applications may be submitted for a project that is match funded by an external collaborator, with view to recruiting the student once the project has been approved, similar to the previous project-led approach. Should the project be approved by the panel, the supervisory team will then be allowed to advertise the project and recruit a candidate. Please note that a candidate will need to be recruited and approved by the Doctoral College ahead of the deadline (23:59 on 6^th September 2019). Should a high quality candidate not be found then the allocated funding will be withdrawn.

The Fast Track, match funding application form is in two parts: the project (Part One) and student details (Part Two). Copies of the application forms can be requested from PhDstudentships@surrey.ac.uk

• For Project-Led applications only ‘Part One’ of the form needs to be completed and submitted to the panel, with ‘Part Two’ being completed once a suitable candidate has been found
• If the project has a student attached then both forms will need to be completed.

All completed forms should be returned to PhDstudentships@surrey.ac.uk

Due to the competitive nature of the competition we recommend that applications are submitted early.
