Competitive fully-funded studentships are available each year (to both home and overseas students) and the Unit also welcomes students with pre-secured funding or with other scholarship/studentship applications in progress. Although you may be able to bring funding it is not part of our admissions criteria.

1) Applicants are encouraged to apply directly to the Unit in the first instance by forwarding, in PDF or plain text format where possible:

• their CV,
• a statement of research interests,
• transcript(s) for previous degrees,
• and arranging for three academic referees to forward letters of reference in this format,

2) These should be sent to admissions@gatsby.ucl.ac.uk. General enquiries should also be directed to this e-mail address. For further details of research interests please visit the unit website.
