The Courtauld is delighted to announce the creation of a fully funded doctoral scholarship in Spanish art-historical studies, commencing at The Courtauld Institute in London in the academic year 2017/2018.
The scholarship has been created through the generosity of CEEH (Centro de Estudios Europa Hispánica), in association with ARTES, the Iberian and Latin American Visual Culture Group.
The Courtauld Institute is one of the world’s leading centers for art-historical research, and the scholarship will cover The Courtauld’s Home/EU/International tuition fees for three years (or four if required), together with an annual stipend of £12,000 for living costs and travel.
HOW TO APPLY
Applicants should apply to The Courtauld’s PhD program following the standard process, and then submit an application via the Courtauld Scholarship application form.
Applicants must demonstrate that Spanish art, architecture, or visual culture forms the focus of their proposed research topic, and are advised to contact prospective supervisors to discuss research proposals well before the application deadline of January 9, 2017.
As a minimum, applicants are expected to hold a postgraduate qualification such as an M.A. or equivalent by the time they begin their doctoral studies, and should have at least reading knowledge in Spanish or Catalan. In the first instance, applicants should send prospective supervisors a CV, sample of written work in English, and a 300-word proposal. In assessing applications, the scholarship committee will consider the extent to which the research proposal falls under the supervisor’s areas of research expertise.
