preference will be given to candidates wishing to pursue research in visual, auditory
or somatosensory perception, spatial orientation or motor control.

expected to pay tuition fees of, currently, #2,740). Eligible applicants will wish to
pursue research which falls within any area of psychology supported by the ESRC

the second year.
