About this opportunity
The Jenny Balston Scholarship is for History PhD students and is funded through a bequest from the estate of Miss Janet Mary Balston, MA (1971), to the University of Edinburgh Development Trust. The scholarship provides an annual stipend at the UKRI rate and tuition fees at the UK rate. Awards will normally be tenable for up to three years, subject to satisfactory progress. The scholarship is awarded to students accepted for admission on a full-time basis for an on-campus PhD in History programme, including History, Scottish History, and Economic and Social History. Only applicants eligible for home tuition fees will be considered; international fee-paying students are not eligible for this scholarship.
