The Oxford-Rothermere American Institute Graduate Scholarship at University College is available for applicants who are ordinarily resident in the UK, EEA or Switzerland who are applying to the full-time DPhil course in History or Politics, who will be conducting research specialising in American topics.
The scholarship covers course fees and a grant for living costs. Awards are made for the full duration of your fee liability for the agreed course.
The scholarship is only tenable at University College. All eligible applicants will be considered for the scholarship, regardless of which college (if any) you state as your preference on the graduate application form. However, successful applicants will be transferred to University College in order to take up the scholarship.
Selection is expected to take place in April 2021.
The Rothermere American Institute is a department of the University of Oxford. It was created in 2001 with a mission to promote ‘greater public and academic understanding of the history, culture and politics of the United States’ - within Oxford and beyond.
Housed in an award-winning modern building, the RAI is the foremost academic institution beyond America’s shores for teaching and research in US history, politics, international relations, literature, and culture.
Every year, it hosts more than 200 seminars, workshops, conferences and lectures. These attract students, scholars, policy-makers and public figures from across the world to study the United States.
‘Where has America come from and where does it find itself? What is it doing, and what ought it to do in the world?’ President Clinton posed these questions at the Institute’s opening. Today, they remain at the heart of the RAI’s mission.
