About this opportunity

Supported by the Dorothy Dunnett Society, the Dorothy Dunnett Centenary Awards comprise two annual awards for research in history, politics, culture or religion in the 11th, 15th and 16th centuries. The awards consist of a £1,000 award and a £500 award. The awards are open for applications from current research students at the University of the Highlands and Islands. Applicants for the £1,000 award will normally be studying for a PhD, while the £500 award may be given to a Master's student if deemed appropriate. All research proposals must comply with the charitable aims of the Dorothy Dunnett Society. Awards will be determined by a selection panel's assessment which will consider academic performance and the research proposal.
