Master Scholarships in Migration and Intercultural Relations, Erasmus Mundus, Europe

Scholarships The programme combines the European JMMIR network and the Euro-African IMMIS network. Consortium members are: University of Oldenburg (UOL), Germany, University of Stavanger (UiS), Norway, University of Nova Gorica, Slovenia, University of South Bohemia, Czech Republic, Ahfad University for Women, Sudan plus Makerere University and Mbarara University of Science & Technology in Uganda.

The programme combines expertise in migration studies with intersecting fields, such as gender studies, cultural studies, and education and development studies.

Focus
The two key terms of reference for this study programme are migration and intercultural relations. Migration is understood here as encompassing all forms of international migration, voluntary as well as forced movements. Internal displacement, prominent especially in African contexts, will also be addressed. Intercultural relations include not only communication and other forms of interaction between the majority and resident minorities/diasporic communities within nation states but also interethnic relations in the (inter-)national arena and beyond nation states – including multinational settings and concepts such as multiculturalism or cosmopolitanism.

There are four programme main focus:
Gender
Development
Representation
Education
The focus serve as the foundation students use to develop their individual specialisation and profile, e.g. by combining them with a geographic focus involving one or more of the countries in the partnership, potentially also linked to individual language skills. The language of instruction is English, but students will be encouraged to enhance bi- or multilingual language skills.

International Northcote Graduate Scholarships, Australia – UK

Graduate Scholarship scheme- UK

The Northcote Graduate Scholarship scheme is administered by the Menzies Centre for Australian Studies, King’s College London, on behalf of the Northcote Children’s Emigration Fund.

Scholarships are to enable students normally resident in the United Kingdom to undertake a higher degree at an Australian university for a period of up to three years. Applicants must ascertain their eligibility for an Australian graduate programme. There are no limitations as to the field of study. The scholarship will provide economy class return air fares to Australia, payment of compulsory fees and charges at an Australian university and an inclusive allowance of around A$20,000 per annum. Successful candidates must make the outward journey within the first calendar year of the award being granted.


Applications must be supported by:
a) a statement from the applicant on the nature of the proposed course and/or the research project/dissertation (approximately 2 sides of A4);
b) two references from persons in a position to assess the academic potential and character of the candidate;
c) a statement from the host institution in Australia indicating that the research can be appropriately pursued there, and that the candidate is eligible for admission, and has been given provisional acceptance;

Neither the Fund’s Trustees nor King’s College London can entertain providing successful candidates with funds over and above the research award or for more than three years. Scholars must make their own arrangements for health or other insurance cover. Scholars will be required to submit a yearly report on research progress and expenditure under the grant, with a supporting statement from their Australian supervisors.
