SOUTHAMPTON LAW SCHOOL JOINS SOUTH COAST DOCTORAL TRAINING PARTNERSHIP (SCDTP) WITH SOCIO-LEGAL PATHWAY

Southampton Law School has become a new member of the South Coast Doctoral Training Partnership, which has been awarded renewed funding by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) for 2024-2029. The creation of a socio-legal pathway enables the Law School to harness the expertise of its academics engaged in socio-legal and inter-disciplinary research, to offer high quality supervision to ESRC-funded students. Southampton legal academics can supervise students directly through the socio-legal pathway, or co-supervision of students on the 17 other available pathways.

The call for applications is now open for students wishing to commence their studies in the 2024/25 academic year. Please see the SCDTP website for full details of approved pathways, and scholarships available. Interested students are encouraged to contact Professor Harry Annison in the first instance h.annison@soton.ac.uk.

Research in the Law School currently clusters around eight research centres: Property, People and Community; Private and Commercial Law; Institute for Maritime Law; International Law and Globalisation; Global Constitutionalism; Law and Technology; the Stefan Cross Centre for Women, Equality and Law; and Centre for Justice Studies.
