MA, PhD and Postdoctoral awards at the University of East London (UEL)
The School of Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) and the University of East London are offering a number of postgraduate and postdoctoral awards for entry in September 2010:
** MA: HSS Bursaries will cover full tuition fees for UK/EU students and partial fees for international students for ONE year. The scheme covers the MA Innovation Studies, a research-intensive Masters exploring the complex, dynamic relations between social and technological forces shaping innovation processes in an international context:
** PhD Scholarship / Bursaries: The HSS New Decade Scholarship is a major award covering full UK/EU fees plus a living allowance of £14,000 per year. PhD Bursaries will cover UK/EU fees only. Both types of award are for a period of THREE years.
All HSS Postgraduate applications and supporting documents, including a 500-word statement of intent, must be posted in time to arrive by Friday 23 April 2010. For more information, see:

International students are not eligible for the School PhD awards; however there is a competition for two-year 25% fee waivers administered by the UEL Graduate School which is open to all applicants for research degrees:
The University of East London is also proud to announce five postdoctoral research fellowships (two year appointments) to be awarded through a competitive bidding process. The posts are to be advertised in early June; however draft applications will be considered by the School in early April and enquiries are invited.
Applicants to the MA Innovation Studies, part of the European ESST Masters Programme, are also invited to apply for the 2010 ESST European Award for the best paper or essay in Science, Technology and Society. Undergraduate students of any nationality currently enrolled at a European University are eligible. Funding for international mobility in the second semester of the ESST MA is available to EU nationals via the European Erasmus programme.
