The Centre for East European Language-Based Area Studies (CEELBAS) invites applications for postgraduate research studentships available through its AHRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Russian, Slavonic and East European Languages and Culture.

The CEELBAS CDT is a consortium of four universities with extensive expertise in and resources for the study of the languages, literatures, cultures and history of Central and Eastern Europe and Russia: UCL (School of Slavonic and Eastern European Studies), the University of Cambridge (Department of Slavonic Studies), the University of Manchester (Department of Russian and East European Studies) and the University of Oxford (Sub-Faculty of Russian & Slavonic Languages). External training partners of the consortium include the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the British Library, openDemocracy and Pushkin House.

The CEELBAS CDT will award a number of AHRC Doctoral Studentships to candidates who have been offered a place on a relevant doctoral programme at one of its four partner universities (standard UK Research Council eligibility criteria apply). Please note that to be eligible to apply, candidates must have already been offered a place at one of the universities in the consortium.
