PhD Grants

The CIOT offers limited PhD grants in certain circumstances where the research in question contributes to our charitable objective: “to advance public education in and promote the study of the administration and practice of taxation and the principles of economic and political science in relation to taxation.”

All submissions will be treated in confidence.

Grants will not be given to students until they have completed their first year. 

Students must be undertaking either full-time or part-time research towards a PhD in taxation at a UK university although students who are registered for an M.Phil. and who intend to upgrade to a PhD before submission may apply. 

Please note: Our PhD grant application process is under review and applications are currently closed. We will update this page when the application process re-opens.
