London school of hygiene & tropical medicine
Want support at the start of your academic career?
The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, an internationally renowned postgraduate institution for public health and tropical medicine, invites applications for Graduate Teaching Assistantships. These represent a unique and exciting opportunity to undertake original research at doctoral level and to start an academic career through teaching.
Each Assistantship will provide funds for PhD tuition fees together with £14,000 per annum maintenance support for up to four years. Students will be full-time, ready to start in September 2008 and are expected to complete PhD training within the period of the assistantship whilst providing teaching assistance at Master's level for 10 hours per week.
The School's internationally excellent research and training programmes are multidisciplinary, range from basic laboratory and epidemiological studies to public health and policy research, and address national and international health issues. Assistantships are available in the Departments of Epidemiology & Population Health, Infectious & Tropical Diseases, and Public Health & Policy.
We are looking for outstanding candidates with research interests in these areas. Teaching experience would be an advantage but is not essential as training will be provided to support the teaching requirements of the Assistantship.
