[Academic] FW: Carnegie/Caledonian Scholarships and Henry Dryerre Scholarship 2017

Tue Nov 8 17:15:38 GMT 2016

Dear All,

Please see attached details of this year's Carnegie  PhD Scholarship scheme. This is a very competitive scheme so the need for a good first class honours trajectory is essential. Can I ask anyone with an interested student to let me know well in advance of the 27th January internal deadline please?

Cheers,
Neil

Subject: Carnegie/Caledonian Scholarships and Henry Dryerre Scholarship 2017

Dear Colleagues

I am pleased to announce the launch of the Carnegie/Caledonian PhD Scholarship and Henry Dryerre Scholarship for 2017 for students with (or expecting to obtain) a 1st Class Honours degree from a Scottish University.  Accordingly, I would now be grateful if you could arrange for this scheme to be advertised to potential PhD students and supervisors across your Department/School.  The Nomination Form (attached) details what is required for the internal (Strathclyde) stage of the process.  Specifically, at this stage, applicants/academics are being asked to complete only Part 1, Sections 1, 2, and up to and including 3c of the Nomination Form, and submit this, along with full academic transcripts showing the student's undergraduate academic record to date, for the internal Faculty/University adjudication process.  Those chosen to go forward at University level would then complete the full application, including the Statement of Institutional Support, for final submission to The Carnegie Trust.

The University of Strathclyde can submit up to 5 applications and individual Faculties will be limited to a maximum of 5 nominations; accordingly, the deadline for applicants/academics to submit their application to RKES is the 27th January 2016.  RKES will then interact directly with Faculty colleagues in order to have Faculty nominations confirmed by 2nd February 2017.

Once the students have been selected internally at University level, the nominated applicants and associated academic supervisors should work with their VDRs in order to tune the applications towards final submission.  The prospective supervisors are responsible for submitting the nomination form, statement of institutional support form, and academic transcripts on behalf of their student; RKES colleagues will work with the academic supervisor(s) to obtain University sign-off.  The appropriate files must be submitted online through the Trust's website by 5pm on the 28th February 2016.  Multiple submissions for the same student by different universities or academics are not permissible.  Further information can be found at: http://www.carnegie-trust.org/schemes/postgraduate-schemes/carnegie-caledonian-scholarships.html

Many thanks, in advance, for your assistance with this important studentship process.

Regards,

Billy
