Up to three Yates-Unilever Scholarships, tenable for one year and renewable, are offered annually to Graduate Students from overseas countries who register for a Ph.D. Degree in a science subject at the College. Applications are usually made in the first year of study. In any one year the award is unlikely to exceed £300 to any student.
N.B. The Lewis Graduate Scholarship is only offered once every three years. It is not available in 2009-10.
The College expects to award one Lewis Scholarship to a graduate student registering for a Ph.D. degree in the humanities. The scholarship is tenable for up to three years, subject to satisfactory academic progress; it may be held in conjunction with other awards. The scholarship covers University and College fees at the Home/EU level and provides the student with a maintenance allowance at an ESRC level (currently £12,600).
The scholarship is open to all applicants who name Robinson College as their College of first choice on the Board of Graduate Studies Application Form for Admissions as a Graduate student, or are prepared to change College if offered the scholarship. The scholarship is conditional on the candidate being offered a place at the University.
Further information on scholarship funding may be obtained from the College website (http://www.robinson.cam.ac.uk/proxyadmissions/graduates.php) or by contacting the Graduate Admissions Tutor, Robinson College, Cambridge, CB3 9AN.
