Along with the Oxford NERC Doctoral Training Program in Environmental Research, the St Cross College are offering a scholarship for students beginning their DPhil DTP (Doctoral Training Program) at Oxford University in the academic year 2019 to 2020.

Available for students taking their DPhil at St Cross College, beginning Michaelmas 2019, the Graduate Scholarship funds tuition fees for home and EU applicants throughout the whole study, given that students effectively complete their Transfer of Status.

Moreover, successful scholars will receive priority for accommodation within the College for their first year; the accommodation will be charged at the standard rate.

Note that the College will automatically consider applicants who list St Cross College as their first choice, as well as those who apply ahead of the deadline. Successful applicants will be judged on their academic merit and the DTP will take place at St Cross; there will be no opportunity to change Colleges.
