PrintStarun Scholarship in Polish Studies at Hertford College Oxford
The College proposes, if suitable candidates present themselves, to award a Mary Starun Scholarship tenable from 1st October 2011. The Scholarship is open to graduate students of the University pursuing research in any area of Polish history, Anglo-Polish relations, Polish literature or the Polish language, but preference will be given to candidates whose research falls in the period before 1800.
The award (which is intended to be supplemental, and may be held concurrently with other awards) is for two years and carries a value of £4,000 pa towards food and housing. Students currently at another Oxford College will be expected to migrate to Hertford.
Holders of the Starun Scholarship are Senior Scholars of the College. Senior Scholars are entitled to two free dinners a week at the High Table during term-time, and also have extra dining rights as Associate Members of the Senior Common Room.
Applications should reach the Academic Administrator, Hertford College, Oxford OX1 3BW not later than 14th March 2011, including a statement of candidate’s qualifications, research, and intentions. There is no application form. Two referees should be asked to send references directly to the Academic Administrator by the closing date.
