PhD studentship: Protein use efficiency in bread wheat

Four-year fully funded NRPDTP competition for Home and Overseas applicants. Saved policy covers international students’ full tuition, UKRI-minimum maintenance and £5,000 annual research training support; international students are capped at 30% of annual programme intake, not a project quota or personal odds. £21,805 is the 2026/27 stipend reference, not a confirmed 2027 rate. The project is shortlisted; this is not an individual award. Any DSV-specific stipend or research-support enhancement is unconfirmed. October 2027 entrants may claim up to £3,500 towards their own visa and IHS after registration against evidence; dependants are excluded.
