London PhD Scholarships and job opportunities in New York

24th Nov 2016

The BIT PhD Scholarships Programme is now taking applications for 2017. We are looking to award two scholarships in collaboration with the School of Public Policy, University College London (UCL). Each scholarship will run from autumn 2017 for three years. The scholarships can focus on any area of behavioural science and public policy, but strong links between the work of BIT and the research interests of staff at the School of Public Policy are preferred. While completing their PhD, scholarship students will work part-time at BIT’s London office, embedded within a relevant policy team. Successful applicants will also be expected to meet UCL’s entry requirements.

Please submit a CV, a statement of interest in working for BIT and a research proposal (each to be no longer than two pages) to hannah.keating@bi.team. The research proposal should make clear the specific policy problem(s) to which their research will be applied. Applications will close on the 19th December 2016 at midnight (GMT).
