Trust for Scotland’s Small Research Grant Scheme will be closing

Providing up to £2500 the Small grants Scheme has been very popular with
academics at all stages in their research career to provide funding for small,
pilot type personal research projects.
Those thinking about applying for a Small Grant are
encouraged to do so before the deadline of 15th May 2014.

This scheme is being replaced by a new **Research
Incentives Scheme** aimed at Early Career Researchers. Special
preference will be given to those up to 5 years of starting their independent
academic career. Carnegie Research Incentive Grants aim to support short
research projects, either of a stand-alone nature or in the form of an initial
study that could be expected to lead to a more extensive project. The principal
criterion for the award of a Carnegie Research Incentive Grant is that the
planned research is of excellent quality and likely to be of benefit to one or
more of the universities of Scotland.
The maximum ward value is £7,500 and the minimum
£500.
The first submission deadline is 15th September
2014. The new application form will be available from 1st June 2014 and online
submission will open on 1st July 2014.
