40 PhD student positions in Computer Science: Edinburgh

Studentships for PhD study in
the School of Informatics at
the University of Edinburgh
---------------------------

FORTY research studentships are available for:

* UK students
* EU students
* students worldwide

Many of these are full studentships, paying your tuition fees and a
stipend of 12300 pounds to cover living expenses in your first year,
rising in second and third years. The rest pay your fees and/or a
contribution of 6150 pounds per year towards living expenses. Payment of
fees for non-EU students is subject to successful competition for an
Overseas Research Student award. PhD students are encouraged to make
contributions to teaching, for example by leading tutorial groups, and for
this you can expect to earn an additional 500-1000 pounds per year.
