Arché is offering two three-year PhD studentships for uptake from January 2009. The studentships are intended to support doctoral research within the scope of the Foundations of Logical Consequence Research Project. These studentships provide full coverage of tuition fees for EU students. They provide, in addition, a yearly maintenance grant of up to £12,500 for students from within the UK. These studentships are not open to applicants from outside the EU.

Closing date: 30 September 2008.

Applicants must apply for admission to the St Andrews Philosophy Graduate Programme through the Postgraduate Admissions Office by 30 September 2008.

In addition to meeting all of the standard University requirements for new PhD applicants, it may be advantageous for you to include with your application a longer writing sample (up to 6000 words) and short statement of your research interests detailing how your proposed research will contribute to the overall aims of the Foundations of Logical Consequence project.
