The Institute of Historical Research (School of Advanced Study, University of London) and Historic Royal Palaces are pleased to announce the availability of a fully funded Collaborative Doctoral Studentship from October 2025 under the AHRC’s Collaborative Doctoral Partnership Scheme. 

This project will explore the intersection between London’s immigrant communities, the Crown, and the Tower of London in the Late Medieval and Tudor Period, combining for the first time an archival study of the royal household with a digital humanities analysis of existing databases of Londoners and immigrant communities.

This project will be jointly supervised by Dr Justin Colson and Dr Adam Chapman, Institute of Historical Research, and Dr Charles Farris and Alexandra Stevenson, Historic Royal Palaces. The student will be expected to spend time at both the Institute of Historical Research and Historic Royal Palaces, as well as become part of the wider cohort of CDP funded students across the UK.

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

Students should have a master’s degree in a relevant subject or demonstrate relevant equivalent experience.  

We encourage the widest range of potential students to study for this CDP studentship from different backgrounds and career stages to apply.

Potential applicants are welcome to contact Dr Justin Colson (justin.colson@sas.ac.uk) if they have any questions.
