Brunel is pleased to announce the expansion of its research scholarship scheme for 2009 to fully fund up to 30 PhD studentships across the full range of academic disciplines.
The prestigious Isambard Scholarships will be awarded to Home/EU students who demonstrate the potential for research excellence. Successful applicants will join a thriving research community, with Brunel’s recent success in the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise confirming its international research standing.
The awards are funded in part by the Vice Chancellor’s Research Strategy Fund and in part by the Brunel Scholarship Fund, which relies upon charitable donations. The aim of the scheme is to attract excellent candidates to pursue their research at Brunel.
Awards will be made on the basis of academic excellence and potential for future research excellence. Initial judgments of potential will be made within Schools and Research Institutes, then shortlisted candidates from across all disciplines will be considered by the Isambard Research Scholarship Panel. Applicants will be informed of the panel’s decision by 14 August 2009 and will normally be expected to commence their studies in October 2009.
