RTSG is the Research Training Support Grant, which is there to aid you in your research and can cover many expenses, such as equipment, overseas travel with registration to conferences, and certain training courses. Please note that equipment eligible for purchase from your RTSG allowance does not include laptops or computers as those will be provided by your research group when you start your PhD. The amount of your RTSG will depend on your scholarship. Please check your scholarship letter for details.

Department will provide £700 RTSG to self-funded students for the duration of their PhD.

Please contact your Senior Research Group Administrator before making any purchases or bookings for travel/accommodation.
