Scholarships will consist of a waiver of the first year´s fees, and are open to exceptional students from any university intending to pursue research in a subject area, either historical or modern, covered by the Department. Scholarships for 2010-11 will be awarded to students accepted by the Faculty of Arts who are not major scholarship holders. The scholarships will be named in honour of the four editors of HTOED: Christian Kay, Jane Roberts, Michael Samuels and Irené Wotherspoon.
