Deadline- 1st May 2013
James Henry Green Charitable Trust through the James Green Centre for World Art at Royal Pavilion & Museums (RP&M), Brighton & Hove offers PhD scholarship to pursue doctoral research within the Department of Art History at the University of Sussex.
The three-year scholarship covers University tuition fees and an annual book award of £1000.
The purpose of the award is to build and share knowledge about RP&M’s rich holdings of material and visual culture from Africa, Asia, the Pacific and Americas. For this reason the main requirement of the award is that the proposed doctoral research project considers some aspect of the World Art collection. Other requirements include a yearly report and, at some point during the scholarship, a public outcome for staff and visitors to Brighton Museum & Art Gallery (for example a talk, display or web article about the research project). The scholarship-holder is also expected to make a presentation on the subject of their doctoral research to the Trustees of the James Henry Green Charitable Trust at one of their annual general meetings during their tenure of the scholarship.
Eligibility–
- have been offered a place on a research degree programme in the Department of Art History at Sussex
- submit their research proposal and a statement of personal circumstances with their application
- commence the degree in October 2013 (awards cannot be deferred to subsequent years)
