Hi All,

This is from a Centre for Law, Gender, and Sexuality that I am part of and
that involves the universities of Kent, Westminster and Keele.

Do please pass on to anyone you know that may be interested, suggest they
have a look at the details below (and attached) and also have a good look at
our website www.kent.ac.uk/clgs/ to know more about the Centre and who is
there.

Thanks - I do hope this proves of some use to some of you

Best to all

Oliver

Your PhD application should be sent directly to the University where your
prospective supervisor is based (not to CentreLGS). Once your application is
accepted by one of the three CentreLGS partner institutions (Keele, Kent &
Westminster), you are entitled to become a Centre member and participate in
all
Centre events and activities. CentreLGS actively supports student members
and
has a Postgraduate and Early Career Network (PECANS):

What about Funding?

CentreLGS is pleased to be able to offer one 3-year fee waiver for UK/EU
fees
(or equivalent deduction of non-UK/EU fees) to a student who will be
registered
at Kent Law School. The deadline for applications is 30 June 2007. To apply,
send your CV, name of proposed supervisor and research proposal to:
p.j.bernard at kent.ac.uk

 

In addition, Kent, Keele and Westminster Law Schools all offer studentships
