Coventry University and Warwick University are working jointly to fund a research cluster of six fully funded dual award PhD studentships matched with experienced PhD supervisors from across both institutions. These studentships will enable successful applicants to develop leading research on improving access and participation for minority ethnic students in postgraduate research in the UK.
Our aim is to build and sustain an innovative research cluster comprising doctoral students who are developing their own individual research into broadly related themes, in race and higher education.
There is an expectation that all proposals will include some element of an intersectional analysis within the application and will include critical analysis of the racialised dimensions of higher education.
Minority ethnic lived experiences of higher education reflected in the application are also particularly encouraged.
For more information and to arrange an informal discussion with our research leads, please email [email protected] with details of your proposed research and include ‘Coventry Race XChange’ Studentships’ in the subject field.
