Foundation for Urban and Regional Studies (FURS)

These scholarship available for africulture, urban dan regional studies. Students will receive up to £9,300 pa.
FURS is concerned to promote urban and regional research and within this broad field it is particularly keen to encourage an understanding of the interconnection between social, economic and political processes and of the broader causes and effects of these processes. This means for example that research which examines policies critically and focuses on their unintended as well as intended consequences is more likely to be supported than research on managerially defined questions. Conversely research which takes a ‘technical’ approach to urban and regional questions and does not place them within wider contexts of understanding is unlikely to be given priority. Application form: www.iser.essex.ac.uk/furs/funding/studentships/docs/applic.doc Applications must be received by 31 January each year.
