The Centre for Film Studies at the University of St Andrews is offering up
to
four PhD fees-waiver scholarships in Film Studies for UK ans EU-based

areas of expertise of members of the Centre.

These 3-year bursaries will be awarded in May 2009 to four PhD applicants
with
outstanding research potential, to enable them to pursue studies at St
Andrews
from September 2009 until August 2011. Applicants are invited to apply via
the
Postgraduate Office for a place on the programme, and their applications
will
be considered for these bursaries along with those of other applicants.

DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS TO REACH US: 15 April 2009.

We also expect to be awarding one fully funded PhD studentship under the
AHRC
block grant, pending the outcome of the University's application. This will
be
known later in the week and announced on our web-site,
