Scottish Universities’ International Summer School 2010, David Daiches Scholarship
Scottish Universities’
International Summer School 2010
David Daiches Scholarship for British and Irish Literature
Professor Daiches established the School in 1947 with the aim of promoting international goodwill and cultural understanding, bringing together students from around the world to study, socialise and befriend one another. Professor Daiches died in 2006, and SUISS commemorates the life and vision of our founder by offering a special scholarship in his name. By offering a residential scholarship for one student for a two weeks course (according to the applicant’s choice of modules) we hope to continue to promote his vision. The scholarship is intended to support a gifted literature student who would otherwise be unable to attend the School, and will be awarded on the bases of academic merit and financial need.
The Scholarship will be payable in Edinburgh and cover the Summer School’s course and accommodation fees, which includes the costs of all tuition, accommodation, most meals, a social and cultural programme and full use of the facilities of the library of Edinburgh University. The successful candidate will be offered a free place on the Text and Context Course. It is at the discretion of the selection committee if this is for one or more modules. The Scholarship does not cover travel expenses or spending money. If your attendance of SUISS solely depends on receiving the scholarship, you do not have to pay the deposit.
Applications for this special Scholarship are now invited from undergraduate or postgraduate students in British and/or Irish Literature. The closing date for the award is 12th April 2010. Applicants should indicate on page 4 of the application form if they would like to be considered for the David Daiches Scholarship, and include a letter with further details regarding their financial situation, giving the reasons why SUISS should consider them for the scholarship. We also require that one of the referees supports the scholarship application. There is no separate application form.
If unsuccessful, applicants to the Text and Context course can be considered for a SUISS scholarship. (Please indicate on page 4 of the application form if you would like this to be the case.) Please note that SUISS scholarships only cover part of the course fee.
Further information can be found on the SUISS website, which also contains the facility to download our application forms, and the SUISS brochure.
