Trinity Hall Centenary Studentship
 

To celebrate the centenary of Trinity Hall, the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies is pleased to announce a studentship for the academic year, 2008-2009. 



Opened in 1908, just four years after women were admitted to TCD, Trinity Hall was the official residence for female students up until the 1970s. Today Hall is home to just over 1,000 students with the composition of the residential body fully reflecting that of the wider college community.

 

The Hall Centenary Scholarship covers EU fees for one academic year and rent free accommodation in Trinity Hall for 12 months. The prospective scholar will be admitted to the M.Phil in Women’s Studies programme and undertake a dissertation in women’s history, specifically on some aspect of the lives of women in Trinity Hall 1908-2008. The successful applicant is expected to reside in Hall for the duration of the programme and to make an active contribution to the life of Hall. 

 

Interested students should apply directly to the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies by submitting the application for the M. Phil. programme including references and a statement of interest.  In addition to the required information, please include a discussion of no more than two pages addressing the applicant’s interest in this project plus their suitability for undertaking archival research.  Please return to forms directly to the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies. 

 

Applications must be received by the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies by 3 July (email: [log in to unmask]  web address: http://www.tcd.ie/cgws/)  with interviews scheduled for later in the summer.
