Trinity Hall invites applications for the Environmental Services Association Education Trust (ESAET) Studentships. Established in 2008, the ESAET will provide two Studentships with funding to cover University composition fees at the home/EU rate and maintenance for a three-year period.
It is open to qualified graduates, of any university and nationality, to conduct or continue research leading to the Ph.D. Degree at Cambridge in Law or the Sciences whose area of research reflects in some way the mission and vision of the Environmental Services Association (http://www.esauk.org/).
Applicants must apply through the usual Cambridge admission procedure, and have been accepted for graduate study leading to the Ph.D. Degree at the University. They must be members of Trinity Hall while holding the ESA Studentship. Applicants will be of outstanding academic ability.
Successful candidates will be expected to come into residence in October 2009.
The Studentships are renewable annually for up to a maximum of three years (subject to satisfactory progress), and the successful holders are expected to present a paper to a special ESA conference to be held at Trinity Hall in 2012.
