The Open University is part of the CHASE AHRC Doctoral Training Partnership together with the Courtauld Institute of Art, Goldsmiths, University of London and the Universities of East Anglia, Essex, Kent and Sussex. Successful applicants for PhD study at the Open University will have the opportunity to apply for a CHASE studentship. These awards cover fees and a stipend for students based in the UK, and fees only for EU residents.
