Studentships will be available across the full range of social science disciplines
Liverpool, UK - 9 February 2011: The largest centre in England for social science postgraduate training has been established at the Universities of Liverpool, Manchester and Lancaster. The North West Doctoral Training Centre (NWDTC) is one of 21 in the UK, created by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), and will provide PhD students with access to quality research training in social science disciplines. Liverpool, Manchester and Lancaster are now guaranteed a total of 63 new postgraduate studentships per year to support research and training at doctoral level each year. This will amount to more than £15 million of investment over the next five years. Studentships will be available across the full range of social science disciplines, including areas such as Geography, Economics and Psychology. The ESRC has also identified particular areas of study that would benefit from further development across the UK. These include subjects such as Language-Based Area Studies, Economics, and Management and Business Studies.
