The Foundation for Urban and Regional Studies Ltd was set up in 1995 as a charity under the Companies Act. Its main source of income is the surplus generated by the International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, the leading critical urban and regional studies journal established in 1977 and published by Wiley-Blackwell. IJURR is run by a wholly-owned subsidiary of FURS.
Course Level: Studentships are awarded for pursuing doctoral degree programme.
Study Subject: Studentships are available within the field of urban and regional studies.
Scholarship Award: The one-year studentship for doctoral research is renewable annually for a further one or two years subject to satisfactory progress reports: the value of this studentship is currently worth £11,400 per annum. The Trustees have the discretion to increase this in the light of special circumstances or hardship.
