About this opportunity

The Ewan and Christine Brown Postgraduate Scholarship is designed to assist UK domiciled postgraduate students undertaking a PhD in Classics, Scottish History or English Literature at the University of St Andrews. The scholarship has been made possible by generous gifts from Ewan Brown CBE FRSE 1963 and Christine R Brown (Lindsay) 1964. Selection is based on both academic merit and financial need. Two awards of £16,500 per annum are available, paid towards tuition fees first, with any balance between tuition fees and the annual award value paid as maintenance. The award is for three years of postgraduate study, supporting doctoral candidates in the humanities disciplines. Recipients are expected to engage with the Development Office, attend scholarship events, and submit reports throughout the period of scholarship support.
