Candidates must carry out research that is relevant to marine biology.

For a list of available projects, please visit the relevant page of our website, link here (https://www.zoo.cam.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/claire-barnes-zoology-studentships) or via www.zoo.cam.ac.uk)

Applicants are also invited to suggest their own projects. Please visit our research pages (https://www.zoo.cam.ac.uk/research) for more information on our supervisors and their research areas.

For more details of the University’s entrance requirements see the Graduate Admissions website (https://www.graduate.study.cam.ac.uk/entry-requirements).

Candidates of any nationality/residency may apply, but a successful Overseas applicant would need to secure additional funds from other sources to cover the higher fee level. The most current estimates of costs can be found on the Graduate Admissions fees page (https://www.graduate.study.cam.ac.uk/finance).

To be considered for these studentships, candidates must have applied to the University of Cambridge following the normal application process (https://www.zoo.cam.ac.uk/study/postgraduate) by 31 January 2019.

Please note that to be considered, you must also have uploaded all of your supporting documentation by this date. This deadline falls after the main University funding deadline of 3 January 2019; any eligible applications made to the Zoology Department between 12 noon on 3 January and 31 January will therefore only be considered for these studentships.

Interviews are likely to be held in February-March 2019.
