The Adam Smith Business School offers a prestigious combined MRes/PhD training scheme in Economics. It starts with the 2 years MRes programme. Candidates who complete the MRes at a sufficiently high level will be given priority for admission into the 3-4 years PhD stage.
The University of Glasgow will fund up to six studentships covering tuition fees and a stipend for up to five years to enable students to receive comprehensive MRes (pre-PhD) training and to subsequently undertake supervised independent research in a chosen field of economics, leading to a PhD. Funding is annually renewable and includes small teaching obligation starting from year 2.
Note: You are required to attend a 2-week introductory course in mathematical methods before commencing the MRes programme.
Benefits
The scholarship will run for a maximum of 5 years. Each year’s funding is conditional on successful progression and acceptance into the PhD programme and includes:
Tuition fees at the standard Home/EU or international rate
An annual bursary equivalent to the RCUK rate – £15,245 for 2022/23 (estimate)
During the 3 PhD years there will be a research support grant of £750 per annum
