Looking for PhD funding?
Applications are now invited for the Wolfson Postgraduate Scholarships in the Humanities.
With generous funding from the Wolfson Foundation, the Wolfson Postgraduate Scholarships fund doctoral research in three areas: History, Literature, and Languages.
The Wolfson Foundation awards funding to outstanding students who demonstrate the potential to make an impact on their chosen field. There are three scholarships available for 2025/26, generally expected to represent each of the three areas: History, Literature and Languages.
Each scholarship offers £36,250 per student per year (i.e. £108,750 over three years) and covers:
- Tuition fees (at home or overseas rate)
- Maintenance, research, travel and training costs (where there is remaining balance)
