Fully Funded Doctoral Awards (The University of Hull)

The University of Hull is offering the following fully funded doctoral awards over three years. The topics are set out within the links but there is  flexibility in terms of topic for the right candidate.

The closing date is 2nd February 2015. It is worth noting that these projects benefit from close associations with WISE, the multiple award-winning Wilberforce Institute for the Study of Slavery and Emancipation http://www2.hull.ac.uk/fass/wise.aspx
