Manchester-Melbourne Call for Jointly Awarded/Dual PhD Projects
Applications close 16 October 2023
Melbourne and Manchester are calling for project proposals to establish pairs of jointly awarded/dual PhD research projects. Each successful team of collaborating Primary Investigators (PIs) will receive funding for two jointly awarded/dual PhD candidates, one based in Manchester and one based in Melbourne. Funding for each candidate will include tuition fees, a full living stipend allowance, research training support, health insurance and travel allowance.
Project proposals are open to all research areas, particularly those that are of mutual research strength for Manchester and Melbourne. However, Manchester’s Faculty of Humanities particularly encourages applications in Creativity, Digital Futures, Inequalities, Post-COVID Society, and Sustainability and Manchester’s Faculty of Science and Engineering particularly encourages applications in AI, Health, Sustainability, Quantum and Digital and Fundamental.. Those that involve Early Career Researchers (ECRs) as either Principal Investigators or co-investigators are strongly encouraged.
At the end of the successful completion of the program, each candidate will be eligible to receive a PhD, recognised by two testamurs, one from Melbourne and one from Manchester, stating the joint nature of the award and name of the partner institution.
