The Open Studentship Competition

The 2022/2023 Northern Bridge Consortium Studentship Competition opens on Monday 17 October 2022. 

Prospective applicants are expected to read the full Guidance Notes, to make themselves aware of the competition process and deadlines, and to approach prospective supervisors at the relevant Schools and Departments at the earliest opportunity.

The competition is open to all applicants who meet the AHRC's eligibility criteria. We will host two online Workshops for Applicants to help support prospective applicants to develop their research proposals. Bookings are via Eventbrite only:

For those unable to attend the Workshops, presentation slides and a recording of one of those workshops will be made available on this page shortly after.

Please note these Workshops are intended for prosective applicants only.

All internal staff based at Northern Bridge Consortium partner institutions, Subject Area Leads, prospective supervisors and Professional Services staff are invited to attend an online competition launch briefing on Tuesday 25 October, from 2:00-4:00pm. The link will be circulated internally by email.
