"Enquiries about the PhD in Digital Humanities, Centre for Computing in
the Humanities, King's College London, are welcome. Now is a good time
to begin thinking seriously about an application for anyone who requires
funding, since most sources are now known and open to applications.
Anyone interested should write directly to me.

See http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/humanities/depts/cch/pg/phd/ for a
brief note about the programme. Note that the PhD is a research-only
degree. Admission is primarily decided on the basis of a research
proposal of ca. 5 to 10 pages. Normal procedure is for potential
candidates to develop a draft in consultation with the department over
several iterations. All manner of subjects within the digital
humanities are welcome at least for initial discussion. Most degrees
are supervised collaboratively between the Centre and one or more
other departments in the School of Humanities, School of Social Science and Public Policy
or potentially one of the other Schools at King's. Enquiries concerning full- and
part-time PhDs are welcome, as are enquiries about what we are now calling a
"semi-distance PhD", pursued by someone who lives abroad but visits according to an
agreed schedule.

Yours,
WM"
