New Hall has generous funding available for graduates, especially in relation to the size of its graduate population. Gifts by BP enable us to offer support to a number of overseas candidates each year. The Körner studentship and the college’s own Overseas Bursaries provide further funding opportunities. For UK and EU students, we can fully support up to 2 PhD students through the University’s Domestic Research Studentship Schemes.
