Our vibrant, modern University is gaining prominence both nationally and internationally and we have ambitious plans for our future. Our main campuses in the cities of Cambridge, Chelmsford and Peterborough have been transformed with major capital investments. With an annual turnover of £200m and over 39,000 students, we are a major force for higher education in the East of England.

The studentship will attract an annual tax-free stipend of £15,000 for up to 3 years, subject to satisfactory progress, and will fully cover the UK/EU tuition fees. Applications from non-UK/EU students are welcome, but studentships for these students will only cover tuition fees up to the value of UK/EU tuition fees (currently £4,500) and students will be liable for the remainder. As part of the studentship the successful candidate would be expected to undertake up to six hours teaching, other research or administrative support per week and make a general contribution to activities of the Department.

The candidate will be based in the LAIBS Cambridge Campus situated in the centre of the city and will be expected to enrol in the PhD programme in September 2016, completing their studies in August 2019. Your supervisory team will include the tourism, mega-events, and mega-projects expertise of Michael Duignan and Prof Chris Ivory.

Please see the Anglia Ruskin University website for more information on this Studentship, the Department and how to apply.

We value diversity at Anglia Ruskin University and welcome applications from all sections of the community.
