The School of Culture & Creative Arts at the University of Glasgow is delighted to invite applications for the Dr H Morag M McCallum PhD studentship in research related to classical singing in its widest remit including interdisciplinary projects (theatre, film, translation, etc), performance, pedagogy, musical works, social, cultural, political and artistic movements (contemporary or historical), with a preference for projects that either research underrepresented groups’ engagement with classical singing, or seek to promote such an engagement.

The deadline for applications is Friday 15 May 2026, and the successful candidate would ideally start in October 2026.
