Postgraduate Scholarships

Through the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland, the Foundation awards up to three Postgraduate Scholarships annually to graduates with a first-class Honours degree from a Scottish University. Each is tenable for up to three years for research leading to a PhD degree in Scotland. There is no preference for subject and at least one award each year is made in a non-scientific discipline.

Applications for 2008 Scholarships are now closed. The next closing date will be 15th March 2009. It should be noted that the Regulations downloadable from here pertain to the 2007-08 academic year; updated Regulations will be available in due course.

The Foundation does not discriminate on grounds of gender, ethnicity, nationality or disability. It seeks only to appoint to its Fellowships and Scholarships those individuals whose applications have achieved excellent rankings following peer review and who will benefit most from the awards. It does, however, require that Fellows and Scholars live and work in Scotland during their tenure of the Foundation's award - except where the award is specifically for, or incorporates an approved period of, work outwith Scotland.
