Fitzwilliam College Geoffrey and Anna Walker Studentship

The Geoffrey and Anna Walker Memorial Fund was established in 2024, through a bequest from the estates of Geoffrey Walker (Life Fellow, Fitzwilliam College) and his wife Anna Walker. This fully funded PhD studentship supports postgraduate students, either Home or Overseas, undertaking Doctoral research at the University of Cambridge. The studentship prioritizes candidates in three areas: first, the subject of Catalan Studies within the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages and Linguistics; second, the subject of Modern and Medieval Languages within the Faculty of Modern and Medieval Studies and Linguistics; or third, cognate studies in the humanities (excluding media studies and information technology studies). An award of up to £55,000 is provided to include a full maintenance bursary and a contribution towards tuition fees. The studentship is intended to support promising doctoral researchers in these specific humanities fields for the duration of their PhD studies.
