Graduate Scholarship

This is only available in alternate academic years, ie 07/08 09/10 11/12

For the academical year 2003/04 the College will award one Graduate Scholarship in either the Arts or Social Sciences to a student of British nationality normally resident in the United Kingdom who has been admitted by the Board of Graduate Studies and who has nominated Darwin as their College of first preference on CIGAS Form 'A'.

The Scholarship is restricted to those applying for one-year courses and is not intended for those wishing to be registered for the Ph.D. Degree. The Scholarship covers both University and College fees together with a maintenance allowance.

Studentships/Bursaries

Darwin College Philosophy Studentship

Darwin offers one or more Philosophy Studentships of up to 2,000 pounds to students undertaking graduate work in the Faculty of Philosophy. However, other things being equal, preference will be given to UK students. No special application forms are necessary and all eligible applicants will be considered from information contained in their CIGAS file. The tenure of the awards is one year, but holders may re-apply in subsequent years.

Darwin College Bursaries

In addition, the College also offers several Darwin College Bursaries of 1,000 pounds tenable in any subject and unrestricted as to nationality of the applicant. These awards are for one year only and cannot be renewed. Those wishing to apply for these Bursaries must do so on the appropriate application form which can be obtained by writing to the Dean. Only students coming into their first year of graduate study are eligible.

For both the Philosophy Studentships and College Bursaries preference will be given to those who nominate Darwin as their College of first choice.

Every applicant who is offered membership will, if eligible, be sent the appropriate application form at the same time as a written offer of a place is made.

Vargas Scholarship

The College also has a Vargas Scholarship. This provides all approved fees and maintenance for three years. Only Venezuelan citizens studying for the Ph.D. Degree in medicine (or possibly related subjects) are eligible.

Travel Grants

A number of modest travel grants and bursaries are also available for the support of academic travel and 'fieldwork' expenses by fee-paying graduate members.
