Europaeum Scholars Programme: Humanities, Social Sciences 3872 views

The Europaeum Scholars Programme is a world-class training programme that is alongside an existing doctorate. It is meant for those exceptional students who have the capacity and the desire to shape the future of Europe for the better.

About the program:

  • The primary focus of the Europaeum Scholars Programme is to engage academic thinking with policy making and to produce a new generation of leaders, thinkers and researchers with the capacity to meet the cultural, political and societal challenges facing Europe today.
  • It runs for two years alongside Scholars’ existing doctoral studies and is multi-disciplinary, multi-university, and multi-locational, and focused on contemporary European policy.
  • Scholars visit key European and international institutions where they learn about how they function in conversation with practitioners and policymakers.
  • Each student is fully funded by a scholarship worth €10,000 per annum for two years. This covers full accommodation, travel, food, and all tuition.
  • The Programme will start in Oxford in April 2022.

Requirements:

  • Candidates are expected to be people who “think for themselves but not just of themselves”. They should have the desire to shape the future of Europe for the better. And they should have the potential to do so.
  • Candidates to be enrolled on a doctoral programme at a Europaeum university, Scholars will be pursuing research related to the study of Europe (broadly defined), typically, but by no means exclusively, in one of the following subjects: Anthropology, Area Studies, Cultural Studies, Economics, European Studies, Gender Studies, Geography, History, International Political Economy, International Relations, Languages, Law, Literary Studies, Management, Media Studies, Political or Moral Philosophy, Political Science, or Religious Studies.
  • They may be studying a joint degree that partially falls into Humanities or Social Sciences.
  • Candidates must demonstrate exceptional results in their undergraduate degree (usually a First Class degree or its equivalent).
  • Outstanding graduate work – either in the form of a Distinction in a Master’s course (or commensurate level of performance) and/or two academic references stating that the applicant is capable of performing exceptionally well at the doctoral level.
