SCHOLARSHIPS TO ATTEND THE ANGLO-CATALAN SOCIETY ANNUAL CONFERENCE

1. Given the popularity and success of recent scholarships, we have decided to continue to divide the Anglo-Catalan Society Scholarship into a limited number of awards to encourage students interested in Catalan culture to attend the Anglo-Catalan Society Conference.
2. Applicants will normally be current or recent students from British or Irish universities who would like to maintain and/or develop their knowledge and understanding of Catalan culture. Postgraduate students at other universities and individuals on temporary contracts can also apply, provided that they are currently doing research in the field of Catalan Studies.
3. The award will comprise: membership of the Anglo-Catalan Society for one year (until January 2026), and a contribution towards the cost of conference and travel expenses. Payments will be made on production of bills and receipts further to the submission of a report (see point 6).
4. Each applicant should submit the following information: curriculum vitae; one academic reference by either a member of their department or by a Catalan lector; a signed declaration to the effect that the applicant will attend the full conference and that they will take responsibility for the rest of the funding.
5. Applications should be sent to the Postgraduate Student Liaison Officer, Mireia Gómez i Martínez (mgomezmartinez@ucc.ie) and the Honorary Secretary, Dr Daniel P. Grau (Universitat Jaume I – daniel.grau@uji.es).
6. Successful candidates will be expected to submit a report on the Conference to
