HOW TO APPLY

Applicants should apply to The Courtauld’s PhD programme following the standard process, and then submit an application via the Courtauld Scholarship application form

Applicants must demonstrate that Spanish art, architecture or visual culture forms the focus of their proposed research topic, and are advised to contact prospective supervisors to discuss research proposals at least eight weeks before the application deadline of 11 January 2019, and ideally earlier.  As a minimum, by the time they begin their doctoral studies, applicants are expected to hold a postgraduate qualification such as an MA or equivalent and should have at least reading knowledge in Spanish. In the first instance applicants should send prospective supervisors a CV, sample of written work in English, and a 300 word proposal. In assessing applications the scholarship committee will consider the extent to which the research proposal falls under the supervisor’s areas of research expertise.
