Churchill College Postgraduate Academic Travel Fund

The Churchill College Postgraduate Academic Travel Fund supports doctoral students and MB/BChir or Veterinary students in their 3 clinical years with travel funding to attend academic conferences and electives. Doctoral students can request up to £350 a year during each of their first three years of study, with any unused amount carried over to accumulate to a potential maximum of £1,050. Masters students can request up to a total of £350 during their courses. Medical students whose electives are in developing countries can also be considered for additional funding of up to £300 from the Martin Le Cornu Fund. This fund is intended to contribute to the costs of travelling to present oral papers or posters at appropriate recognized academic conferences and for clinical medicine students travelling to electives. The amount available is pro-rated for part-time students based on their specified rate of part-time study. Recipients must provide receipts on return from travel, and all travel must be covered by appropriate insurance and within visa conditions. Students are also asked to provide a short write-up of their conference experience.
