About this opportunity
Kickstart your academic career with full financial support for your Economics PhD and gain expert skills in research and teaching with our Graduate Teaching Fellowships (GTF).
Are you planning to start an Economics PhD in October 2027? Don’t miss the opportunity to apply for one of the University of Liverpool Management School’s 4-year GTFs.
A GTF is a studentship for full-time PhD students which provides substantial financial support and an opportunity to gain experience as a higher education (HE) teacher.
This means that as well as pursuing your PhD research, you’ll also be involved in a fixed number of teaching hours during your time with us.
In year one, alongside your specific PhD research modules, you’ll complete a short teacher training programme by the University of Liverpool.
As well as gaining a formal HE teaching qualification, you’ll learn key pedagogical skills for the academic job market, primarily through shadowing mentored classroom involvement.
During the remainder of your PhD, you’ll have the opportunity to put your research skills into practice while completing your doctoral research thesis.
