The Hugh Goddard PhD Studentship<\/h1>\n
\n
\n

The HRH Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Centre for the Study of Islam in the Contemporary World at the University of Edinburgh is offering The Hugh Goddard PhD Studentship in Inter-Religious Relations in a Globalised Muslim World, for a January 2022 start. The studentship is named in honour of the Founding Director of the Edinburgh Alwaleed Centre in recognition of his ground-breaking work on Islam and inter-religious relations.<\/p>\n

\n

This is a fixed term, three-year studentship, ideal for students who have recently completed a Master\u2019s degree in a relevant discipline (e.g. Politics and International Relations, Area Studies, Islamic Studies, Religious Studies, Sociology, Anthropology, Economics, Human Geography).<\/p>\n

The theme of the research is contemporary interactions between Muslim religious actors, or Muslim communities more generally (be they the majority population or a minority), and other religious or non-religious actors or communities. We are particularly looking for projects that can link up local community dynamics to global, international or transnational actors, ideas or practices circulating in the contemporary context. The empirical cases and themes of the study are for you to chose and define.<\/p>\n

The supervisory team will be led by Professor Frederic Volpi at the Edinburgh Alwaleed Centre with additional supervisors from other Schools and Departments with relevant expertise on the selected research project. The award of the Studentship is conditional on the successful candidate applying and being accepted onto a relevant PhD programme in the College of Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0studentship will cover the required tuition fee and an annual stipend\u00a0\u00a315,690 for the 2021-2022 academic year, increasing in line with UKRI rates.<\/p>\n

Eligibility<\/h2>\n

The award is open to UK\u00a0and Overseas students commencing their studies in the 2021-2022 academic year, starting their programme of study in January 2022.\u00a0\u00a0The successful candidate will be expected to be Edinburgh-based and, in addition to undertaking their research, contribute to the full range of the Centre’s activities, including its outreach programme.\u00a0\u00a0Subject to satisfactory progress, the Studentship will be awarded for a maximum of three years.<\/p>\n
