+ <p>
+ We run an annual PhD studentship project scheme where we award funding
+ to project plans put together by our researchers and academic
+ partners. The scheme supports both our own staff to undertake PhDs and
+ the recruitment of new students. We are not able to fund employees of
+ other organisations to undertake PhDs.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ New students normally start around the beginning of each academic
+ year. Recruitment of students generally takes place between March and
+ July each year. Projects are advertised through specific academic
+ partners and sometimes via FindaPhD.com. Links to any projects open
+ for applications will be regularly updated on this page.
