AHRC Scholarships or Studentships

Beginning in the 2009-2010 academic year, the University of Leeds may be part of the AHRC Block Grant Partnership scheme. The University expects to be informed of the AHRC decision in Spring 2009, at which point this information will be made available to students. Until that time, all students who are intending to apply for AHRC funding for PhD or MA study within the School of Fine Art, History of Art and Cultural Studies are STRONGLY recommended to familiarise themselves with the requisite paperwork for BOTH the Block Grant and AHRC Studentship Competition Schemes. This can be reviewed at the following section of the AHRC website.

The School has over thirty members of staff comprising artists, historians and theorists. Since the mid 1970s, the School has initiated and developed postgraduate programmes and research in the area generally defined as social or critical histories of art with additional attention to cultural studies, feminist analyses and studio practice. Areas of research and teaching include British, Russian, French, European and American studies, variously spanning the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries, architecture and urban planning in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, Renaissance studies, classical Greece and the expanding fields of contemporary art practice.
