The CUTG invites applications for two travelling
scholarships of up to
£250 each, intended to assist postgraduate members in
travelling abroad
to
carry out research for their thesis or give a paper
directly related to
their area of study. The scholarships are intended to
contribute to the
costs of reasonable and necessary travel and/or
accommodation.
The deadline for applications is 1 July 2005. The CUTG
proposes in
future
to offer two scholarships in each half year. If
unsuccessful the first
time, applicants may re-submit their application in
the following
round.
No further re-submissions will be accepted.
The following criteria of eligibility apply:
• Applicants must be a fully paid-up member of the
CUTG at least
from the submission of the application to the time of
payment of the
scholarship.
• Applicants must be registered at a university in
Great Britain or
Ireland for a PhD on a topic related to German
Studies.
• Postgraduate students based abroad or already
carrying out
research abroad are ineligible to apply.
An application statement of no more than 250 words
should be emailed as
an
MSWord attachment to the Hon. Treasurer Dr Jim Jordan
([log in to unmask]). It should contain the
following details:
• The name and contact details of the applicant.
• The applicant’s PhD thesis topic or title; the
institution at
which it is registered; and the full name of the
supervisor(s).
• Details of the research or paper, its relevance to
the applicant’s
thesis and the timing of the trip.
• A costed breakdown of the items for which the
applicant is seeking
support.
• Details of any other funding for the trip which the
applicant has
applied for or obtained. Applicants should note that
the CUTG
encourages
them also to seek funding from other bodies.
Applicants will be informed of the Committee’s
decision within two
months
of the deadline.Successful applicants will receive
their scholarship at
that time.
Scholarship holders are required to supply to the
Treasurer within
three
months of the completion of their trip a report on the
visit of no more
than 200 words, along with any relevant receipts or
documentation, or
copies thereof.
Scholarships will be awarded at the discretion of the
CUTG Committee,
which retains the right to apply further criteria of
selection and
eligibility.
