We are offering twelve bursaries to support postgraduates and early career scholars presenting at our 2025 conference.

To be eligible for a bursary, you must be either:

• Registered for a postgraduate degree (at any university); or
• Be within three years of completion of a PhD and without institutional support.

Each bursary will cover the full costs of registration, plus a contribution of up to £220 towards accommodation and travel.

To be considered for a bursary please complete the application form below before the deadline of noon on 31 March 2025.

The ‘rationale of application’ should outline the basis for the application in no more than 500 words. If you have organised a panel, or if there is a specific networking opportunity presented by this conference, then you should include this in your statement.

We ask bursary applicants to book their place at the conference and any on-campus accommodation at the point of their application. Applicants should select the BACS payment method on checkout but leave the payment details blank. Orders will be kept on hold until the bursary competition closes. Successful applicants will then have their orders confirmed, and unsuccessful applicants will have the option to make a payment or cancel the original order.

Please contact socialhistorysoc@gmail.com if you have any questions.
