Postgraduate Bursaries
The Association for Contemporary Iberian Studies is offering four postgraduate student bursaries. Successful applicants will have the conference fee waived for the forthcoming ACIS Conference at Technological University Dublin, 4-6 September 2024.
These bursaries are available to postgraduate students whose research is related to an area of interest to ACIS members, and who are willing to offer a paper at the 2024 Conference. ACIS aims in this way to encourage postgraduate students to participate in the Association, which is concerned with the study of social, political and economic aspects of the Iberian area, as well as its languages and cultures.
N.B. These bursaries are intended for postgraduate students who are not in full-time or fractional academic posts; students who are employed to undertake small amounts of part-time teaching (less than 0.5 FTE timetable) will be eligible.
Applications
The application process for bursary applications for the 45th ACIS Conference in TU Dublin (4-6 September 2024) is now open.
The completed application form must be accompanied by a supporting reference from the applicant’s supervisor; the reference is needed to help the Conference Convenors and ACIS Executive Committee decide which applications will be of most interest and value, and of sufficient quality to be included in the Conference programme.
Successful applicants will receive a conference fee waiver but please note that travel expenses and accommodation will not be covered by the bursary.
Successful applicants will also be invited to submit papers for consideration for publication in the
International Journal of Iberian Studies (IJIS), on the understanding that publication is not
guaranteed, as this is a refereed journal.
Final date for applications will be FRIDAY 17 May 2024.
PLEASE BRING THIS INVITATION TO THE ATTENTION OF POSTGRADUATE STUDENTS IN YOUR DEPARTMENT.
ACIS RELIES ON ITS MEMBERS AND FRIENDS TO PUBLICISE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO POSTGRADUATES.
