What we offer
In 2015 most awards will be valued at R60,000 annually, with a maximum award of R100,000 per academic year, for study at Masters and PhD level. We support both full and part-time study and will consider applications from those who wish to study by distance learning.
We also organise an annual conference for current scholars, usually in July, and hold several smaller events throughout the year. These are part of our programme and allow scholars to become part of our network.
How to apply
The application process will close at 3 pm BST on 28 July 2014 British Summer Time, for study commencing in 2015. Applicants must apply to their chosen universities separately and awards are conditional on the applicant being offered a place at the relevant university.
