Overview
This scholarship is awarded by the Trustees of the French Huguenot Church of London Charitable Trust, on the advice of the Institute of Historical Research. The award will be made to a student working for a higher degree on a Huguenot subject, i.e. the study of any activity of the French, the Dutch, the Flemish or the Walloon Protestants from the 16th century to the present, in any geographical area. ‘Activity’ will be interpreted in the widest sense.
Details
In addition to completing the online application form, applicants must submit a CV and an outline of their research (details below). The deadline for the receipt of applications is midnight on 18 October 2019.
APPLICATION FORMAT
- Hard copy applications will be deemed ineligible. Only applications made using the IHR’s online application system will be considered.
- Applications for which the requested supporting documents (one-page CV and thesis/ dissertation summary) are not uploaded will be deemed ineligible.
- Applications which do not receive two supporting letter of reference will not be considered. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that his/her referees supply letters in support of the application.
REFERENCES
Once an application has been submitted, a standard email will be sent automatically to the addresses supplied by the applicant in the ‘Referees’ section of the online application form. This will provide the referees with a link to the online system, where they can upload their reference letter. These letters must be uploaded to the online application system directly by the referee, not by the applicant. Applicants may arrange instead for a portfolio of generic references to be sent by their university, where such a service is offered. In that case the box in the ‘Referees’ section marked ‘Portfolio to follow’ should be ticked, and the referee details left blank.
It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that his/her referee supply letters in support of the application, and it is strongly advised that referees are contacted well before the application is submitted. Applications which do not receive two supporting letters of recommendation by 1 November 2019 will not be considered.
FINAL REPORT
At the end of the year in which the scholarship is held, the scholarship-holder will send to the Fellowships Officer at Institute of Historical Research (by email) a report detailing his/her academic activities undertaken with the help of the scholarship.
