Placement-Based Dissertations

Content

There is support available for Masters students on select programmes to support activities that contribute to the completion of a Placement-Based Dissertation.  This funding could be put towards associated costs for dissertation research, travel and accommodation for fieldwork, or reimbursement for research costs. 

Further information regarding funding and how to apply for it will be shared with students who successfully apply for a placement. 

You can find out more information regarding placements on the MSc Placement-Based Dissertations page and on the PBD Learn Page.
