The University allocates around 150 entry awards each year in PhD studentships and bursaries, so there are many ways to access PhD funding. A studentship is usually a package that provides full funding for tuition fees and living costs. Information about studentships relevant for those wishing to study in the School of Pharmacy can be found below.
Tuition fees
PhD fees vary according to where you come from, whether you study full or part time and where you are based during your degree.
Alumni discounts
If you've previously completed a degree with us, you’ll automatically receive our alumni discount (£1,500 off the cost of your tuition fees).
PhD funding
BBSRC FoodBioSystems (DTP)
The DTP is developing bioscientists with in-depth knowledge and technical expertise of food systems and biological processes across the agri-food system, from pre-farm to post-fork, to transform the food value chain and address sustainability challenges.
Other available studentships for PhD study
The University's Doctoral and Researcher College School holds further information about studentships and other funding available for both UK and International PhD applicants. We suggest that international students also consider funding sources in their own country to increase their chances of securing finance.
