Historic England (HE) has issued a call for proposals under the collaborative doctoral partnerships scheme.
Historic England writes:
We are now issuing a call for proposals from universities to co-supervise 1 of 3 CDA studentships to commence in October 2016. Proposals are to be made jointly by a researcher at a UK university and a member of staff from Historic England or English Heritage, based on one of the Research Themes we have identified:
- Development and impacts of statutory and non-statutory heritage lists on the national management of heritage
- Ownership and effective management/care of heritage
- Historic Building Information Modelling (BIM)
- Medieval friaries: heritage, interpretation and regeneration
- English Heritage‘s Roman collections: developing a national picture of range, spread and significance
Further details on these themes and the relevant proposal documents can be found online.
The deadline for proposals is November 27 2015, for studentships to start in October 2016. A panel consisting of internal and external experts will judge the proposals and those that are successful will be advertised as studentships to find suitably qualified students in early 2016. The studentships will be co-supervised by both the university academic and the Historic England/English Heritage staff member.
