Restricted Call: Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarships (internal deadline: 23^rd October 2025) 

The Leverhulme Trust has pre-announced the Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarships call, due to open on 3^rd November 2025. Ten awards of up to £5 million will be made to UK universities in this round, with each award to fund up to 30 Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarships in a priority research area for that institution.  

 The Trust and the scheme have a focus on funding interdisciplinary research, and it is therefore expected that topics will involve more than one discipline.  

 For further information about the call, see the funder’s guidance and the attached bid guidance document from the Postgraduate Research Office.
