Diamond's joint fully-funded studentships for a September/October 2023 start are now listed below.
We also have some immediate start studentships which are open for applications listed below.
Applications for some of these projects may not yet have opened however you are welcome to register your interest by clicking the button below and completing the form. You can register your interest for as many projects as you like and we will get in touch with you by email to let you know when applications for specific projects have opened.
Diamond jointly funds around 15-20 studentships every year with a variety of collaborators from both academic institutions to industry partners. Students accepted onto these projects will be part of our yearly cohort intake and are supported by both their academic and Diamond supervisors, as well as a dedicated Student Engagement team based at Diamond.
Diamond studentships are typically 50% funded by Diamond and 50% by the partnering university institution (or 25% funded by Diamond if there is a third party collaborator). Students are therefore required to spend 50% of their studentship at Diamond, with most students relocating to the local area for this period. Support on suggested accomodation options are provided by Diamond.
