John Orr Award

The John Orr Award is offered by the School of Literatures, Languages and Cultures at the University of Edinburgh for study in any romance literature, language or dialect. The award provides £5,000 that will be deducted from tuition fees and is tenable for one academic year. Award holders are expected to be energetic members of the postgraduate community and will engage with opportunities to present their work to the wider student and staff body during the period covered by their award. The School offers postgraduates a range of training and development opportunities appropriate to their programme of study. Preference may be given to those working in language studies, and the School can typically supervise research in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, and Italian.
