Students may have to bear additional costs in relation to PhD-associated fieldwork and/or research trips. These costs will be specific to the individual student and project. Where a funded PhD place has been offered by the Department, allowance for most research costs will be included in the studentship awarded. In some cases, research costs for particular projects may be much higher, and in these cases, applicants should discuss any potential additional costs with their intended supervisor prior to applying or accepting an offer.
Once students are in the Department there are limited Department funds for which students can apply to cover such additional costs.
