Applications are invited for the prestigious Wellcome Trust MHCUK Masters scheme which is a collaboration between a consortium of universities in China and the UK. Six studentships are available for candidates to complete a Masters in the History of Health, or the History of Science, Technology and Medicine, at either the University of Strathclyde or the University of Manchester.

Tuition fees will be met and the successful applications will also receive funds from the above Wellcome Trust grant for living expenses of £18,000 per annum, travel costs of up to £1,000; health check and insurance costs of up to £700; visa costs of up to £600 and research travel costs of up to £1,000.

Students must be registered on a postgraduate History degree at Shanghai University, the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences or Fudan University. The expectation is that the student will complete the classes in the UK in year 2 of their Chinese Masters studies, and complete a dissertation in both English and Chinese in years 2 or 3 to enable them to graduate with a Masters degree in both the UK and China. However, it is also possible for students completing a PhD at one of the Chinese partner institutions to apply for this opportunity as long as their supervisor agrees to this arrangement.

Applications should include the following:

· A one-page cv outlining key academic achievements.

· A 500 word application. This should address two questions:

o What research topic in the Medical Humanities/Health History would you like to complete as part of your Masters degree?

o Would you prefer to study on the degree at Manchester or at Strathclyde? Please provide academic justification for your choice. To find out more about the Centre for the Social History of Health and Healthcare (CSHHH) Glasgow, and the Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine (CHSTM) follow the links below:

It may be an advantage if your research topic is related to one of the following key themes, and considers contexts and cast studies over the last three centuries:

o Pharmaceuticals, Medicines and Drugs

o Infectious Diseases and their social, cultural and policy histories

o Environment, and/or Climate, Change and Health History

o Mental Health Histories

o Animal Health and Human Societies

The deadline for applications is Monday 24 April and should be submitted to Caroline Marley (caroline.marley@strath.ac.uk). Interviews will be conducted on Tuesday May 2nd. Successful applicants must have an IELTS score of 6.5 (no individual score below 6.0) by 30 June 2023.
