Who is this for?

It’s open to everyone, but it’s definitely for you if you:

Birmingham is also the youngest major city in the UK, with under-20s accounting for 28% of its population (ONS 2020).

 Are an international student wanting to study a PhD in the UK: Our international team will be on hand to answer your questions about funding, applications and the process you'll need to follow as an international applicant.
