The Department
The Department of Politics, International Relations, and Philosophy (PIRP) is an established centre of teaching and research excellence. The 2021 Research Excellence Framework ranked the department as #2 in the UK for studying politics. Our research spans continents, covering all areas of the world and addressing current, pressing public policy problems. We house several research units and centres, including the Centre for International Public Policy, the Centre for Islamic and Western Asian Studies and the Democracy and Election Centre. Research units and networks emphasize Democracy, Elections and Campaigning; Public Policy; Contemporary Political Theory; New Political Communication; International Security; and Gender and Politics.
The Programme
PIRP has an active PhD programme with several dozen students. Entering first-year students form a cohort and together take a professional development module that covers all aspects of progressing through the PhD programme alongside preparing for careers in academia and beyond.
The studentship
PIRP offers a fully-funded studentship on a competitive basis, via the South East Doctoral Training Arc (SEDarc). We welcome applicants interested in proposing projects in politics and international relations that match one of five challenge themes: living sustainably; healthy, thriving communities; inclusive economic growth; secure, effective, and trusted organizations; and transformative technologies for society. The project is open to specific research focuses and may be co-developed between the student and the academic supervisor.
To enter the SEDarc competition, you must first apply for the PhD Programme in Politics and International Relations. Applicants should contact members of our academic staff about potential projects and work to develop their applications. A full application guide is available here: https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/research-and-teaching/departments-and-schools/politics-and-international-relations/studying-here/research-degrees/applying/.
The deadline for the PIRP PhD Programme admission is 7 January 2025 at 17.00 (5.00 pm).
If you are successful with your application to SEDarc, your studentship will cover:
- your PhD fees
- a living allowance at UK Research Council rates
- additional funds for research and training costs (such as attending conferences, overseas fieldwork, language training, placement costs)
The 2024/25 rates for stipend are £21,237 per annum, which includes £2,000 London Allowance. You can learn more here: https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/studying-here/fees-and-funding/research-degrees/sources-of-funding/sedarc-student-led-studentships/.
