Scholarship details
The work of St John’s College is built on its four aims. All our activities have their foundations in at least one of these guiding principles: Education, Religion, Learning, and Research.
St John’s College Cambridge is inviting applications from graduates to carry out independent research in a stimulating and supportive academic environment.The main purpose of the fellowship is to provide financial help to international students.Up to 6 fellowships will be provided this academic year to the students with the best results shown.
To be eligible to apply for this fellowship the following criteria must be met:
-Applications will be accepted from any graduate of a university within or outside the United Kingdom. Applications from female candidates and those from an ethnic minority are particularly welcome.
-Successful candidates are expected to be either graduate student, probably in the latter stages of their research leading to a PhD Degree, or post-doctoral researchers who have been awarded their PhD Degree after 1 October 2016. Candidates who do not fulfil these criteria are unlikely to be considered.
