The CAMEMS Scholarship

The Canterbury Association for Medieval and Early Modern Studies (CAMEMS) Scholarship supports students pursuing the Medieval and Early Modern Studies Taught MA at the University of Kent. This scholarship is funded by CAMEMS members to encourage access and interest in medieval and early modern studies. The scholarship fosters close relations between the University of Kent's Centre for Medieval and Early Modern Studies (MEMS) and local organisations with involvement and interest in the period, and the wider public. The successful candidate will receive a £3,000 annual stipend paid in two installments of £1,500 in October and January. As part of the scholarship, recipients will have the opportunity to develop their CV by undertaking minimal administrative tasks for CAMEMS in its mission to foster interest in medieval and early modern studies, such as social media and website updates. All candidates who have applied for a place on the taught MA programme by the application deadline will automatically be considered for the scholarship, regardless of their fee status, nationality or domicile. Applicants must have made a formal application to study for the Medieval and Early Modern Studies Taught MA at Kent and be in receipt of a formal offer for September entry. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to attend an interview.
