The AHRC have recently announced an additional 10 Collaborative Doctoral Awards for 2010 to support projects in Museology, Design and Applied Arts and Crafts.

Deadline: 29/10/10

These awards provide opportunities for doctoral students to gain first hand experience of work outside an academic environment. The support provided by both an academic and non-academic supervisor enhances the employment-related skills and training a research student gains during the course of their award.

The studentships also encourage and establish links that can have long-term benefits for both collaborating partners, providing access to resources and materials, knowledge and expertise that may not otherwise have been available and also provide social, cultural and economic benefits to wider society.
