The visiting research student scheme is for doctoral research students who are pursuing studies at another institution, but who wish to be based in the QMUL Institute of Dentistry for part of their degree in order to undertake research. The minimum period of registration is two months and the maximum is one year.

Please allow up to four weeks for application to be processed, where possible you should give at least three months notice prior to application. All visiting students can only enroll on the 1st of the month.

Fees for Visiting Research Students £100 per month (or £400 per month for most lab or clinical projects). Visiting Research Students are not entitled to apply for funding for travel grants and conferences or studentships of any kind.
