Dear colleagues (with apologies for cross-posting) I am please to announce that the Department of German Studies at the University of Warwick is able to offer a number of funding packages to support postgraduate study in both German Studies and in interdisciplinary projects involving a German component. I would be very grateful if you might draw this to the attention of any suitable candidates. Please note that one of the awards (see 4 below) would suit a candidate who is in a position to start their research project more or less straight away. We currently have four schemes of funding: 1. Warwick German Departmental Bursaries The Department of German Studies offers a package of Departmental Bursaries for MA study, ranging from fees-only bursaries, to full fees and maintenance at Arts and Humanities Research Council rates. Further details at: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/german/postgraduates/funding_and_fees/ 2. The Godfrey Carr Fund for Excellence in German Studies The Godfrey Carr Fund for Excellence in Warwick German was established in 2005 with generous support from ALDI and departmental alumni. The Godfrey Carr Fund currently provides financial support up to a maximum of £1000 to offset the cost of postgraduate fees. In 2006-7, all postgraduate students who applied for bursaries received some financial support from either the Department or the Godfrey Carr Fund. Further details at: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/arts/german/postgraduates/funding_and_fees/ The closing date for completed applications for BOTH the Warwick Departmental Bursaries and the Godfrey Carr Fund for Excellence in German Studies is 30 April 2007; however, you must have contacted Dr Sean Allan, (s.d.allan@warwick.ac.uk) by 16 March 2007 to register your intention to apply. 3. Warwick Postgraduate Research Scholarships Warwick Postgraduate Research Scholarships (full fees and maintenance at Arts and Humanities Research Council rates) are currently being advertised. Please note that the deadline for applications is very soon: 30 November 2006. You should contact Dr Sean Allan, (s.d.allan@warwick.ac.uk) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if you intend to apply for one of these scholarships. Further details are available at: http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/insite/newsandevents/notices/pgscholarships/ 4. Warwick Departmental PhD bursary We are currently in a position to offer a Departmental PhD bursary (full fees and maintenance at Arts and Humanities Research Council rates) to a suitably qualified candidate. Ideally the candidate would take up the award in January 2007 and in any case not later than 31 July 2007. This award would be particularly suitable for a student who already has a well developed PhD proposal/project in either German Studies or an interdisciplinary project involving a German component (including European Cinema), but who has been unable to pursue it for lack of funding. Please note that our regulations allow for a doctoral dissertation to be written in either English or German where appropriate. Interested applicants should, in the first instance, contact Dr Sean Allan (s.d.allan@warwick.ac.uk) by 30 November 2006 to register their interest and to receive an application form.
