Postgraduate funding opportunities in History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine at Cambridge HPS
The Department of History and Philosophy of Science will offer a fully funded studentship for a student starting the MPhil in History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine in October 2025. This studentship aims to address challenges of equity and inclusion in the history and philosophy of science, medicine and technology by widening access and participation. We also encourage work deepening understanding of these issues. Home and International students are invited to apply.
We encourage applications from those of Black or mixed Black backgrounds, from low-income households, affected by war, and/or in locations where research training in disciplinary HPS is unavailable, as well as from others interested in transformative research and pedagogy in HPS.
Applicants for this studentship may choose to address topics related to equity, inclusion and widening participation and the varied ways these have been and are significant in science, medicine and technology, but the Department offers scope for research in many other fields.
Those wishing to be considered should apply in the usual way by the funding deadline, 3 December 2024, ensuring that their Statement of Purpose describes how their background and/or research plans address the aims of the studentship.
