Ussher and Research Studentships

    Hi all, I see previous threads about internal funding from TCD. My question is about the scarcity of the Ussher fellowship and research studentships. I've been accepted to a research PhD in history. Around how many postgraduate students get financial assistance from the college?

    Hi
    There are 6 Usshers and 65 studentships per year. And a good few hundred PhD students applying for them each year.
    Best of luck!

    Hi all, I got an email this morning! I did not get an Ussher fellowship but apparently they have been selected. The email also said that I will hear later about the studentship. Bit of a shock to title the email "TCD Ussher Award Notification", but at least they were kind enough to let me know I didn't make it.
