About

The Open-Oxford-Cambridge Doctoral Training Partnership (OOC DTP) welcomes applications for AHRC studentships. The collaboration of the Open University, the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge is underpinned by world-class research and training environments, supported by integrated strategic partnerships with the BBC World Service, the National Trust and BT.

Funding from the AHRC alongside matched funding from the Universities means that there are circa 70 doctoral scholarships available at consortium level each year to students. Studentships are available in all AHRC-designated arts and humanities subject areas.

When applying for study through the Applicant Portal, you must indicate that you would like to be considered for AHRC funding via the University of Cambridge.
