ESRC Travel and Conference Bursaries in Sport Tourism and Sporting Events Research: Identities, Impacts and Issues
http://www.bournemouth.ac.uk/cesr/esrc/index.html
The increasing importance and profile of sport tourism and sporting events as valuable fields of research has been recognised in the United Kingdom by the Economic and Social Research Council (ERSC), with the provision of grant funding for an international sport tourism and sporting events project. This is part of the ESRC's 'Training and Networking Opportunities' Programme. A condition of the funding for the project outlined below is that the bursary scheme is open only to UK-based early career researchers (including doctoral students and researchers within five years of completing their PhD).
The project can now offer fifteen travel and conference bursaries for UK-based early career researchers with an interest in sport tourism or sporting events to attend one of three international events during 2010. Five travel and conference bursaries will be offered for each of the three events. At this stage, the following travel and conference bursaries are available, and applications are welcomed from researchers with an interest in this area:
* Five travel and conference bursaries of up to £1500 each to Australia in February 2010
* Five travel and conference bursaries of up to £750 each to North America in May 2010
* Five travel and conference bursaries of up to £750 each to Korea in August 2010
It is anticipated that the funding outlined above will cover the majority of the travel costs and the conference fees. Applicants will be expected to cover their own accommodation and subsistence costs, or any travel and conference costs that might exceed the respective bursary amounts specified above. Anyone interested in finding out more about the project or further information on the application process should contact the project manager, Richard Shipway on +44 1202 965692 or by email at [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>.
