Frederick Bonnart-Braunthal Scholarship

The Frederick Bonnart-Braunthal Scholarship programme is aimed at
combating intolerance. It supports research to this end, from any
academic discipline. Current and prospective LSE MPhil/PhD students
working in areas relevant to religious, racial and cultural
intolerance are invited to apply.


Structure
(up to) four-year award beginning in October 2010;
the award has an annual value of £15,000, which will cover fees in all cases;
the remainder of the award once fees have been paid will be made
available for maintenance purposes;
the award is renewable annually subject to satisfactory academic performance;
to be awarded on the basis of potential to make a difference in and
around the study of intolerance.
The scholarship will be coordinated by the LSE Centre for the Study of
Human Rights, so in addition to joining the academic department of
their supervisor, the successful recipient will have the opportunity
to become a junior research associate of the Centre. They will be
invited to play a part in the intellectual life of the Centre by, for
example, leading a research seminar on their work.
