In 2013, the School of Chemistry will celebrate the 300th anniversary of the first chair in Chemistry at the University of Edinburgh. As part of these celebrations the School has introduced the Tercentenary International Scholarships Scheme.
The Tercentenary International Scholarships Scheme helps outstanding research students from outside the United Kingdom and European Community to study in the School of Chemistry by providing for some of the costs of their training and supervision.
The scholarships are offered to overseas applicants starting full-time PhD programmes in the School of Chemistry in 2012-2013, with start dates between 1 September 2012 and 1 June 2013.
A minimum of ten scholarships will be available in session 2012-2013. The scholarships worth 5,000 each pa will be offered for a period of three years.
The awards will be used towards tuition fees or general living costs.
These awards cannot be held concurrently with fully-funded scholarships such as a Dorothy Hodgkins Postgraduate Award, Commonwealth Scholarship or a School Studentship. They can, however, be combined with other partial funding.
Please note that to be eligible to apply for a Tercentenary International Scholarship;
- you must be liable for the overseas fee
- you must be of outstanding merit and research potential
- the Supervisor with which you wish to study must support your application
Criteria
The studentships will be awarded on the basis of academic merit with candidates requiring the equivalent of a first-class honours degree or upper second-class honours degree from a recognised university or institution. Non-native English Language speakers must meet the University entry requirements of IELTS 6.5 or equivalent.
- Postgraduate English language requirements
Application Procedure
Applicants should apply online through EUCLID for PhD admission to the University of Edinburgh by 1 February 2012. Applicants must also notify the School of Chemistry by emailing annette.burgess@ed.ac.uk of their intention to apply for a Tercentenary International Scholarship, also by 1 February 2012. In this email, applicants should give full details of their EUCLID application, nominate up to four supervisors and include a description of their preferred areas of research. Applicants must also indicate how they will fund the difference between the value of the award and the actual annual cost of studying and living at the University of Edinburgh.
Selection Procedure
The School Scholarships Allocation Committee will meet in February 2012 to select the studentship holders. The winners will be announced thereafter.
