Scholarship details
The University of Melbourne, located in Australia is looking for Ph.D. level students who are studying French in any of the conventional subject avenues. Whether it’s history, language, cultural, or culinary these Ph.D. students have the opportunity to present a project that they would intend to put forth their own research abilities but lack the funding. That’s where this scholarship comes in, the funding would go towards everything needed to pay off what the research project is in need of.
As this scholarship offers a supportive inquiry to research Ph.D. students enrolled in the Faculty of Arts or the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music. The student truly must be enrolled recently, or intends to enroll as soon as possible. All of who are studying an aspect of French history, culture, or language. The amount awarded will go towards travel, all available learning opportunity, and relating directly to academic research.
This ultimately means that students who may need to travel to France or a French residence can do so on permission of the University of Melbourne.
