Hello All,

Sorry for this cross-posting but I wanted to ask if you can promote this PhD scholarship advert through your networks - https://www.city.ac.uk/prospective-students/finance/funding/shs-doctoral-studentships/_nocache

One of the 11 projects that can be funded by this scholarship is "Sustainable diets for under-represented populations in the UK"

I am very excited to support a UK based student in researching this area, as there is a clear need for ethnic minorities and other under-represented populations in the UK to be considered in the sustainable diets policy. I hope this PhD will provide insight into dietary gaps and policy support for these communities.

There are up to three (3) full/part-time Doctoral Studentships available. One Doctoral Studentship is for applicants from a Black British background and reflects the School of Health Science’s commitment to the Race Equality Charter's aim to improve representation, progression and success of minority ethnic staff and students within higher education.

The studentships will be awarded on the basis of outstanding academic achievement and the potential to produce cutting edge-research.

Applicants must hold at least a 2.1 Honour’s degree or merit level Master’s degree in a relevant subject (or international equivalent)
Applicants whose first language is not English must have achieved at least 7.0 in IELTS or a recognised equivalent
Applicants must not be currently registered as a doctoral student at City, University of London or any other academic institution
Eligibility for the Black British studentship additionally includes that the applicant:

(1) Is a UK-permanent resident (UK fee-paying student) and

(2) Is from the following ethnic groups for Black British: Black (this includes Black or Black British African, Black or Black British Caribbean, Black or Black British other or Mixed Black or Black British). Applicants will self-identify and sign a disclaimer to the effect that the information they provide is correct.

Closing Date: Monday 16th May 2022, 5pm

Please do contact me (christian...@city.ac.uk) if you have any questions.
