We are offering a limited number of bursaries for students and early career researchers wishing to attend the next Scottish Student Archaeology Society Conference (SSASC) hosted at The University of Edinburgh on the 15th-16th February 2025. The bursary will cover the costs of attendance, travel and accommodation (where needed) for the two-day event. This conference is a great opportunity to meet other archaeology students from across Scotland and hear the latest research happening in Scottish universities.
Following a successful bursary application, we ask recipients to write a short case study with an overview of their research or the paper/poster presented at SSASC (if applicable).
To apply, please email our Head of Research (helen@socantscot.org) with an introduction to yourself and a short description of your research interests and why you would like to attend SSASC. Please also include a short statement of support from a supervisor or lecturer.
The closing date for applications is the 31st January 2025, with decisions communicated by the 3rd February 2025 to allow time to book transport and accommodation.
Please get in touch if you have any questions about applying and check out our other bursary opportunities here.
