Colt Foundation PhD Fellowships in Occupational/Environmental Health

What it covers

Each year, the Foundation awards up to 4 Fellowships, to enable holders to study for a PhD in occupational or environmental health at a UK university. Fellowships are normally for 3 years, but Colt Foundation will consider applications for awards over shorter periods from applicants who have already started a PhD, but do not have full funding from other sources to cover completion of their degree. The Fellowship provides 3 elements of funding: • Stipend: The rate for the stipend in 2019/20 was £15,009 (£17,009 for students in London), and it rises each year according to UK inflation. • Research expenses: Up to £5,000 per year towards research expenses (which must be satisfactorily justified) • Fees: The Foundation provides full fees for UK/EU students. Where applicants from other countries are required to pay higher fees, they are expected to make up the difference from other sources.
