PSRF APP FORM

Financial support is given for travel, accommodation, subsistence costs and conference registration.

There is no deadline for applications, and students may apply as many times as they wish. The application should be made before the cost is incurred, and always before the research trip.

The maximum total sum awarded within a PhD course to a student is normally £1000. If the student has Leave to Work Away for one or more complete terms, they are eligible for up to £500 extra per term of leave.

• For small size requests up to £100, up to £100 may be awarded.
• For medium requests £100-£300 normally 50% of the costs are awarded.
• For larger requests, awards in the range £300 to £500 are awarded up to 50% of the eligible costs. Students in their third year, giving oral presentations, attending their first conference, and strongly supported by the supervisor will receive the higher level of awards.
• Award sizes may be reduced later in the academic year in order to conserve funds to allow more applicants to receive awards.
