We're proud to support students who identify as Black British to apply for the WRDTP/Stuart Hall Foundation Award to study with us.

Awards are available to students applying for a PhD at the University of York which is a partner institution within the White Rose Doctoral Training Partnership. The award process will be administered in conjunction with the Stuart Hall Foundation.

The deadline of applying for a PhD with the Department of Politics and International Relations is Friday, December 13th 2024.

These PhD scholarships are open to Black British students (Black or Black British African, Black or Black British Caribbean, Black or Black British other or Mixed Black or Black British). Please note that international students are not eligible to apply for the WRDTP/Stuart Hall Foundation Awards.
