Scholarships for International Students: WREAC Scholarships
December 5, 2008The White Rose East Asia Centre offers several WREAC scholarships funded by the Economic and Social Science Research Council (ESRC). The purpose of the scholarships is to develop the capacity to conduct research in the area of contemporary East Asian Studies using original language sources. WREAC scholarships are available within the White Rose East Asia Centre for a PhD or combination of MA+PhD (1+3 or 2+3) or MA starting each year in September.
The deadline for scholarship applications to WREAC each year is 15th March.
Scholarships could be within any of the Centre’s research clusters, and address issues relating to Chinese and/or Japanese Studies.
The Centre organises its research into four research clusters:
- Business, Political Economy and Development
- East Asian Identities and Cultures
- Social Change and Transition in East Asia
- Regionalisation and Globalisation
For further information on the WREAC research please visit the research page. The Centre comprises East Asian Studies at both Leeds and Sheffield, successful candidates will be registered at either Leeds or Sheffield, but in integrated programmes they may commence their MA studies at one institution and then transfer to the other for their PhD work. In all cases, some travel would normally be required between the two universities and, for each student, supervisors will be appointed from both institutions.
Further guidance on the level of funding available and the eligibility requirements for applicants can be found in ESRC’s ‘Guidance Notes for Applicants’.
As all scholarships are highly competitive, applicants are encouraged to pursue other scholarship opportunities at the University of Leeds and theUniversity of Sheffield. Please note the deadline for each scholarship.
East Asian Studies PhD/MA and Scholarships
White Rose East Asia Centre (WREAC) scholarships and maintenance grants (currently around £13500) for the academic year 2009-2010 will be distributed to UK-resident applicants who submit their applications by the deadline of 15 March 2009.

I am Rev. Josephat Sahani Kaboya aged 39 years, an employee with National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR) at Tabora Research Centre in Tanzania.
I have been working with this Research Institution since 1993 to date as a Senior Laboratory Technologist. In 2001, I completed a two year course of Advanced Diploma in Medical Laboratory Sciences (specialized in Parasitology and Medical Entomology) at the Muhimbili University of health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) by then was known as Muhimbili University College of health Sciences (MUCHS)
Last year i.e 2008, I was offered a place to pursue MSc -Research/PhD in Biomedical Sciences (Biology of Cancer) in the school of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Liverpool, UK.
I tried to look for scholarship/sponsorships but I didn’t get any assistance financially. This year (during this academic year 2009/2010) the Liverpool school authority has nominated me again to pursue the same course.
I therefore, ask you to assist me financially to meet the school required tuition fee (pounds 12,000), bench fee (pounds 3,000.
Bench fee in years 2-4 will be ponds 6,000 = pounds 18,000.
The course is of 4 years and this offer is a conditional one (i.e. it depends on the availability of funds) Also, the course commences on 21st September,2009
I hope that, my financial request will be considered as this course is very important not only to me but also to my institute (NIMR), country and the World at large.
Thanks and God bless you forever.
Yours truly,
