HDC PhD Studentship Scheme
Since its inception in 2000 the HDC PhD Studentship Scheme has helped to produce high quality research outputs, based on original ideas to benefit to the horticultural industry. Critically, the scheme supports the future of the industry by delivering high-calibre practically-minded individuals for employment within both the commercial and academic arenas.
The HDC offers up to four awards annually for postgraduate research studentships. The funding is comparable with that provided by BBSRC.
Academic institutions that undertake research relevant to horticulture are eligible to apply for an award. The HDC does not make studentship awards directly to students. Candidates for a studentship should address their enquiries to the institution where they would like to undertake a research degree.
Further details are provided in the guidance notes for applicants, which include information on how to complete the application form, the terms and conditions of the scheme, and the timetable for the 2011 call.
