AHRC Collaborative Doctoral Partnership (CDP) Studentship

Imperial Intimacies: Portraiture and the East India Company, c.1757–1857, with Tate and the Courtauld

Start date: 1st October 2025

Application Deadline: 6th April 2025

The Courtauld and Tate are pleased to announce the availability of a fully funded Collaborative doctoral studentship from 1 October 2025 under the AHRC’s  Collaborative Doctoral Partnerships (CDP) scheme.

This studentship will explore portraiture produced in connection with the East India Company between 1757 and 1857, to uncover new stories about the individuals impacted by, or involved in, British imperialism in South Asia, and to rethink the role of portraiture within ‘British’ art histories. 

This project will be jointly supervised by Dr Tom Young, the Courtauld; and Dr Alice Insley, Tate; and the student will be expected to spend time at both the Courtauld and Tate, as well as becoming part of the wider cohort of CDP funded students across the UK.

The studentship can be studied either full- or part-time, and it is open to both home and international applicants.

We encourage applications from a diverse range of people, from different backgrounds and career stages.

Students should have a Master’s Degree in a relevant subject or be able to demonstrate relevant equivalent experience.

Any candidates considering applying should feel welcome to contact the supervisors:

Alice Insley (alice.insley@tate.org.uk) or Tom Young (Tom.Young@courtauld.ac.uk);

if they have any further questions about the project or application process.
