Smuts Cambridge Scholarship

The Smuts Cambridge Scholarship is available to PhD applicants whose research relates to a Commonwealth country or countries (excluding the UK), normally in the fields of Arts, Humanities or Social Sciences. It is tenable at any College of the University of Cambridge. This fund is offered in partnership with the Smuts Memorial Fund. The scholarship covers international fees and maintenance for the duration of the PhD course. Trust scholarships do not automatically fund the optional PhD writing-up period, however the Trust may, on application, provide up to a further 6 months of maintenance to support writing up. Approximately 2 awards are available per year, with selection based on both academic merit and financial need (including hardship).
