Subject: Funding for PhD in Law at the LSE

Dear colleagues,

I just wanted to let you know that applications for a PhD in Law at the LSE will open shortly. The deadline for applications is typically early December.

We have a good number of private lawyers with varied research interests and expertise.

The PhD programme at the LSE offers one of the most generous scholarship packages in the UK. All offers come with full funding for 4 years, along with £1000 individual research allowances per annum and a £5000 fieldwork pot. Places are very competitive (typically 8-9 a year). For further details about the program, please see the following links:  https://www.lse.ac.uk/study-at-lse/graduate/mphilphd-law and https://www.lse.ac.uk/law/study/phd

If you know of a student who may be interested or suitable, we would be very grateful if could send this information along to them. Thank you.

Best wishes

Tim
