CHASE

AHRC Studentship

Goldsmiths is part of a new block grant AHRC studentship partnership called CHASE, which means that every year we are able to enter successful applicants to our PhD programmes to a competition for these studentships. 

If you want to be considered for one of these studentships, please note that you will need to submit your application to the Mphil-PhD programme (Visual Cultures, Curatorial / Knowledge, Research Architecture). For this to take place, you will need to view our Mphil-PhD application pack and upload your Research Proposal along with your online application and C.V. 

For further information, please email the PhD programme convenor Dr Nicole Wolf in the autumn term and Ayesha Hameed in the spring term
