UCL EPSRC Landscape Award Studentships

Apply for a fully funded UCL ESPRC Landscape Award studentship

EPSRC
Applications now open

The UCL EPSRC Landscape Award (UELA) aims to recruit 50 outstanding students to undertake fully-funded four-year PhD (including EngD) studentships at UCL. These studentships are open to both Home and International fee status students.

Applications for studentships starting in the 2025/26 academic session are now open.

Closing date: 13:00 UK time on 28 January 2025

All studentships are fully funded for 4 years. They provide: 

  • 4 years fees (Home rate) (International students will receive a UCL award to cover the home/international fee difference) 
  • Maintenance stipend at the UELA enhanced rate (this will be at least £22,737 in 2025/26, and rises each year) 
  • Research Training Support Grant (RTSG). This is to cover additional costs of training, courses, project costs, conferences and travel 

We welcome applications for full-time or part-time study. For part-time students the stipend and duration will be adjusted pro-rata (e.g. a 50% FTE student will receive 50% of stipend for up to 8 years).
