This studentship is part of the cross-national €1.5m NORFACE research project WelfSOC.

It is the first project to use qualitative methods on such a scale in the comparative study of European social policy. The studentship offers:
- The opportunity to work as part of a team on a major international project
- The opportunity to publish using original data
- The opportunity to spend time as an academic visitor to the various projects in Denmark, Germany, Norway and Slovenia
- Supervision by Professor Peter Taylor-Gooby and one other leading academic at Kent
