Current PhD Policing Research in Scotland

SIPR PhD Studentships

Along with the Post-Doctoral Research Assistants, these studentships are a crucial part of SIPR's strategy for delivering relevant research on policing and building the research capacity and critical mass of the networks.

Please note that there is currently no new money available for SIPR-funded PhD positions.

A list of current PhD projects in Scotland relevant to policing, either funded by SIPR or externally funded, is shown with links, where available, to further information.
