Wolfson College is offering jointly with the Department of Experimental Psychology a fully-funded three year graduate Scholarship for a DPhil student to be held at the University of Oxford from the beginning of the academic year 2015-2016.

Applications are invited from suitably qualified graduates who are applying for entry to the Department in October 2015, or from existing students applying to commence a DPhil in the Department. The Scholarship is awarded on the basis of academic merit and potential. 

The scholarship is open to Home/EU students and will cover their full cost including the University composition fee, the College fee, and maintenance costs at the current UK Research Council rate. The successful scholar will become a member of Wolfson College. 

There is no separate application process. Applicants, whether internal or external, should apply to the University of Oxford under the standard procedures for graduate degrees for 2015-16. If there are two or more candidates of equal academic merit, priority will be given to the candidate who has listed Wolfson as his or her first choice college on the University application form.

The Oxford Wolfson Marriott Scholarships have been made possible by a donation to Wolfson College from the late Dr Francis Marriott, who was a University Lecturer and Fellow of Wolfson from 1970 to his death in 2012. Dr Marriott conducted research in the field of biomathematics, and taught statistics.
