Full Time Canterbury, England 17688 GBP ANNUAL Today
Job description

This studentship, led by Professor Cat Rossi, is offered in conjunction with UCA’s School of Architecture and Design in Canterbury. While there is an increasing body of research on women's overlooked contribution to architecture and design, there is still a significant gap in the literature in terms of key issues that have affected women’s ability to study and pursue careers in architecture and design past and present, given their motherhood and caring roles. Domestic architecture is a research priority in the School.This studentship project invites candidates with research projects – pursued either by thesis or creative practice – that explores histories, theories, and practices around the relationship between architecture or design professionals, motherhood and care in the 20th and/or 21st centuries. The successful candidate will work in the School of Architecture and Design in Canterbury and undertake some teaching activity as part of the studentship.

The studentship package includes a fee waiver for three years’ full-time study, and a stipend of £17,688 each year for three years (or equivalent for part-time study for Home students). The studentships recognise excellence in research and are highly competitive and limited in number. Applicants whose application passes an initial review will be invited to interview. Applicants who are successful at interview and offered a place will be put forward for consideration for the Vice Chancellor’s Studentship awards. Studentship decisions are based on the relevance of the research proposal, and performance at interview. Those applying for a studentship or other funding must apply by 17 April 2023. Decisions on studentship awards will be announced by 30 July 2023.
