Hebrew and Semitic Studies Scholarships and Grants

The Hebrew and Semitic Studies Scholarships and Grants are awarded from trust funds in the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies (FAMES) that are designated for the support of Hebrew Studies at the University of Cambridge. The amount available each year varies according to what spendable income is available in the trust funds. The awards provide funding ranging from £5,000 to £10,000 annually to support postgraduate students pursuing research in Hebrew and Semitic Studies. Preference is given to PhD students, and awards to MPhil students are made only in exceptional circumstances. For PhD students, the award is made on a yearly basis, and its renewal after the first year is dependent on good performance. The funding can be used toward home or international fees as well as maintenance costs.
