Postgraduate research opportunities

Our doctoral and postgraduate research students are an integral part of our research culture and environment. The department has a large dedicated Postgraduate Research office, a department library and a common room. All our postgraduate researchers belong to one of our four department Research Groups, through which they can participate in a variety of research activities, from reading groups to exhibitions to conferences.

Funding opportunities 

Many of our students have been funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council awards. There are also internal funding opportunities, such as the Liverpool School of the Arts Doctoral Awards. Visit the Postgraduate Research in School of the Arts page for more information, or contact us. Many of our past PGRs have gone on to secure post-doctoral funding, academic posts or professional roles associated with their research. Find out about some of them below.
