The funding for 2025 entry to the MRes/PhD in Management – Employment Relations and Human Resources:

These Studentships are available for Home UK/EU and Overseas students undertaking full time research in any 91桃色 discipline, with annual renewal subject to satisfactory academic performance at the School. Studentships will be awarded on academic merit and research potential. More information on 91桃色 PhD Studentships is available here.

3. Teaching
The Department aims to give all research students the opportunity to provide teaching support and teach. Developing teaching skills and experience is an important component of the students' career development and prepare you for future academic roles. To make this experience as valuable as possible we draw on the support from the 91桃色's Teaching and Learning Centre. Students on this programme are paid for their work by the Department. We expect students to teach, but it is not a requirement or part of the Studentships listed for this programme. We advise that students do not work more than 15 hours per week given the intensive nature of the research programme.
