Research Awards of the Board of Graduate Studies: Notice

Statutes and Ordinances, 2003, p. 130, Regulation 2(h)

The Board of Graduate Studies invite applications for a limited number of Research Awards which they propose to make in April/ May 2004 and October/ November 2004. Awards may be made at least once a year to Graduate Students, provided that they (a) have relied, during their course of research, on a substantial part of the required fees and living expenses being met from their own funds or other private source and are in unforeseen financial difficulties, (b) are formally registered for the Ph.D. Degree and have completed at leastfour terms of research as a registered Graduate Student of the University, (c) have shown a high aptitude for research, and (d) are not eligible to seek support from the Lundgren Fund or from the scheme of Research Awards for Overseas Research Students in the Humanities and Social Sciences. To avoid disappointment and unrealistic requests, applicants are asked to note that the average size of award rarely exceeds £1,000.

Forms of application may be obtained from the office of the Board of Graduate Studies, 4 Mill Lane, Cambridge, CB2 1RZ. Applications must be sent to the Secretary of the Board's Research Awards Scheme so as to arrive not later than 31 March 2004 for consideration in April/ May 2004 and not later than 30 September 2004 for consideration in October/ November 2004.
