PhD Scholarship “Holocaust Studies” (University of Leicester)
The Stanley Burton Centre for Holocaust Studies – the oldest Holocaust research centre in Britain – is offering a part-time, fees only PhD scholarship for four years. Applications are invited on all aspects of the Holocaust between 1933 and 1945, as well as on post-war memory of the Holocaust in relation to ongoing oral history research at the Centre.
The Stanley Burton Centre for Holocaust Studies was originally founded in 1990 and re- founded under its present name in 1993 under the auspices of the Burton Trusts. It is a non-profit teaching and research centre within the School of Historical Studies at the University of Leicester.
The activities sponsored by the Centre include a programme of research into subjects related to the Holocaust; an active outreach programme; the annual Aubrey Newman Lecture in May; an annual one-day international workshop in May; and a dedicated Holocaust Resources room open to students and the wider public. This is where members meet to co-ordinate and develop activities, as well as staging some of the Centre’s events.
The Centre also provides specialised sources (primary sources and oral testimonies, books, journals etc.), facilities (computer, laser printer, photocopying, DVD/VHS facilities) and expertise outside the University library at regular opening hours. Finally, it serves as a teaching and seminar venue for classes and seminars that are related to the Centre’s activities.
Successful applicants should have already completed, or be about to complete, a Masters degree in History (or a relevant social science discipline) and should be able to demonstrate a strong interest in research.
In order to apply for the scholarship candidates will need to complete a Postgraduate Application Form. Applications should be accompanied by a thesis proposal of no more than 1,500 words outlining the area to be studied, key debates within the field, and initial ideas on potential research methods and sources. Candidates are also asked to submit along with their application a transcript of BA and MA marks, a CV and two academic references.
