St John's College

NORTH SENIOR SCHOLARSHIPS, 2000BEESTON SCHOLARSHIP, 2000

The College proposes to elect from October 2000 one Beeston Scholar and two North Senior Scholars, each of whom will be required to work for a higher degree of the University of Oxford, under a supervisor appointed by a Faculty Board. Candidates will normally have completed a first degree, be aged twenty-five years or under at the starting date, and be in receipt of United Kingdom graduate awards, or their equivalent, cover-ing the academical year 2000-01. Both Scholarships are open to candidates in all subjects, but special encouragement is given, in the case of the Beeston Scholarship, to applications in the field of Middle Eastern Studies.

The value of the Scholarships will be equal to the rate for awards from Government agencies, plus academic fees, less the value of any award held (i.e. the Scholarships do not duplicate fees and maintenance already paid by grant-awarding bodies). The Scholars may, with permission, undertake a limited amount of teaching. Unmarried Scholars will be offered accommodation, supplied by the College, free of charge. A housing allowance is available for married Scholars. Scholars have the right to dine at High Table once a week in Full Term.

The Scholarships are normally tenable for two years.

Application forms, available from the Secretary to the Tutor for Graduates, Mrs Pat Wilkinson, St John's College, Oxford, OX1 3JP (tel. 01865 277428, fax 01865 277640), should be returned as soon as possible, and not later than 21 January 2000.

St John's College is committed to equal opportunities.
