In the second round of funding we have 4 x £5000 scholarships from Santander for BU staff or research students to undertake a specific project that builds on or develops links with at least one university from the Santander overseas network. This call is only open to applications until 9th December so get your applications in fast.
Awards will be announced in January 2012, and funds must be spent before the end of July 2012. Preference will be given to applications received from postgraduate research students and early career researchers.
Funds can only be used to cover direct costs (i.e. not salary costs or overheads).
To apply complete the Santander application form and submit it by email to Susan Dowdle: sdowdle@bournemouth.ac.uk
Successful applicants will be expected to participate in general PR activities about their research. This may involve attending events and promoting the benefits of the funding.
The closing date for applications is Friday 9 December 2011.
Unsuccessful submissions from the last round of the Santander Scholarship funding cannot be resubmitted to this round. Previous unsuccessful applicants can submit new projects/ideas to this round.
