The Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT) offers limited grants to support PhD students conducting research that aligns with its charitable objective: advancing public education and promoting the study of tax administration, practice, and the principles of economic and political science as they relate to taxation. The CIOT aims to encourage high-quality, relevant research that contributes to greater understanding and scholarship in the field of taxation. Grants are available to eligible students at UK universities, with a focus on supporting specific research costs rather than general living or tuition expenses.
