About This Opportunity

SWEA International's Literature Scholarship (Litteraturstipendiet) is awarded annually for research in the Swedish language, literature, and/or culture. First awarded in 1983, it has evolved to focus specifically on supporting doctoral research that promotes Swedish culture and tradition internationally. The scholarship is intended as a research grant to help well-qualified doctoral candidates complete their dissertations. Recipients are expected to contribute to SWEA's mission of spreading Swedish culture globally through their work as researchers, lecturers, and translators. The scholarship is awarded annually, typically during SWEA Sverige Sommardagar or another appropriate occasion.
