Applications are invited for The McBey Studentship in Art History, for a project titled James McBey: Art and Autobiography. This PhD studentship focuses on McBey’s early career. In particular, the project will examine McBey’s autobiographical self-fashioning, using this approach as a springboard to reconsider his early training and career within the art world of Aberdeen. The start date for the studentship is either 1 October 2025 or 1 January 2026.

The three-year studentship consists of a fee waiver at home (UK) rates and a maintenance grant of c. £20,000 p.a. The successful candidate will also have access to a modest research budget, including resources to organise an academic conference.
