Application Deadline: Friday 1 November 2024, 12pm GMT

LOCATION: United Kingdom

The British Council Scotland SGSAH EARTH Scholarships 2025 is a program run by SGSAH with funding from the British Council to enable international research collaborations between PhD and Early Career Researchers and Scottish HEIs and Scotland-based academic mentors, and external organizations, thematically focused on environmental arts and humanities and their interdisciplinary connections. 

ELIGIBILITY:

The Programme is for PhD and early career researchers (ECRs) registered at or graduated from any non-UK university who are working within the environmental arts and humanities to come to Scotland to work with an academic mentor and access networks and resources of a host HEI (Higher Education Institute) in 2025.

All applicants must be currently registered for a PhD, or graduated with a PhD, which broadly falls under Arts & Humanities subject areas. These subject areas are detailed by the AHRC.
