The University of Liverpool Management School is inviting applications from prospective PhD candidates with an outstanding academic achievement and research potential for a number of Studentships in the 2017/18 academic year. These studentships will be awarded across the School, providing full fees (only at Home/EU rate) and a stipend of £14,296 a year for up to four years. These applications are initially for the Graduate Teaching Fellowships (GTFs), but by completing an application form you will be considered for both the North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership NWSSDTP funding and funding via the ULMS GTF Scheme.
We are open to research topics across Management, Organization, Economics, Finance, Accounting, Marketing and Operations. We also explicitly invite interdisciplinary approaches. You can find a few suggested doctoral projects here: https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/management/postgraduate-research/funding-call/
It is expected that candidates contact potential ULMS supervisors before the deadline to explore whether collaboration can be initiated.
