*Fully funded PhD Studentship on public policy development in the Centre of
International Public Policy at Royal Holloway, University of London*

*Overview:*The Centre of International Public Policy
<https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/cipp> (CIPP) is a world leading academic
research centre based within the Department of Politics and International
Relations <https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/politicsandir/home.aspx> at
Royal Holloway, University of London. We are currently offering a
fully-funded PhD Studentship for three years from September 2018. The
successful candidate will be supervised by Dr Ursula Hackett
<https://pure.royalholloway.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/ursula-hackett%2836bc1d93-6ed9-423b-aeee-844ee6f2e5c6%29.html>
 and Prof Andreas Goldthau
<https://pure.royalholloway.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/andreas-goldthau%28fa61069f-7b3d-4689-b125-54cbb37c8ac4%29.html>
and
will sit within and be supported by CIPP. He or she will benefit from our
wide-ranging expertise in political science, international political
economy, and public policy, and will be expected to become part of our
research community.

We invite applicants to submit a 2000 word proposal within the field of
public policy making in the US, UK or other advanced democracies. Rising
polarization, citizen alienation and the growth of privatized forms of
governance and regulation animate the study of the design and
transformation of public policies on the national and transnational level.
Questions a PhD project could address may include:

   - Under what conditions do public policies pass or fail?
   - How do the coalitions advancing policies form and do they differ
   significantly across different policy areas?
   - Why and how are policies transformed over time?
   - What role do policy regimes play in this context?

Proposals may examine policy structure or compare policymaking procedures
across several policy domains. Comparative proposals are welcomed though
not required. Proposals may be qualitative or quantitative in nature with a
preference for mixed-methods design.

Applicants should have a background in political science, public policy or
a closely related discipline.

*Eligibility: *

   - Applicants should have completed a Master’s degree (or equivalent from
   a university outside the United Kingdom) in a relevant subject by the start
   date.

*Funding Details:*

   - Starts September 2018 (with the possibility of a January 2019 start
   date)
   - Three-year award
   - HEU fee waiver worth approximately £4,195 and maintenance of
   approximately £16,553 p.a. (2017-18 figures; 2018-19 figures to be
   confirmed).
   - Access to departmental research and training allowance
