Cambridge PhD Scholarship for Classical Chinese 2013

[roddy]

This came through on email, figured I might stick it up here:

*****************

The Department of East Asian Studies offers funding for one PhD

fellowship to start in October 2013. The value of the scholarship will

be £15,000 per year for a maximum of 3 years. This will cover university

composition and college fees for a UK/EU student plus a significant part

towards maintenance (for details, see

http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/gradstud/).

Preference will be given to research proposals in the following fields:

early Chinese cultural history; religion and thought of pre-imperial and

early imperial China; classical Chinese philology, text and manuscript

studies, Dunhuang studies. It is expected that the candidate will be

supervised by Prof. Roel Sterckx and/or Dr Imre Galambos. Candidates

should have an undergraduate, and preferably, a master's degree in

Chinese Studies, have an advanced level of classical Chinese, and be

proficient in modern Chinese. A reading knowledge of Japanese can be an

advantage.

Candidates are encouraged to contact Professor Sterckx or Dr Galambos for informal enquiries

I've removed the email addresses of the contact folk as I shouldn't be posting them in public, but a quick Google should sort you out if you need them. Let us know if you get it ;-)
