Skyscape Archaeology Research Grants
Research in skyscape archaeology is often prohibitive for students and early career researchers, either due to the costs of travelling far away in order to survey a particular archaeological site or owing to the high cost of specialised equipment.
The Sophia Centre/JSA Skyscape Archaeology Research Grants are meant to support, promote and nurture future research projects by students and early career researchers in the field of skyscape archaeology. Each grant will consist of a maximum of £500 to be used towards the execution of a research project. Projects may be part of their studies (if this is allowed by their programme or unit), completely independent pieces of research or pilot projects for further studies.
Applications are welcome from postgraduate university students of an archaeology, anthropology, cultural astronomy or related field; as well as early career researchers who received a postgraduate qualification within the last seven years. Evidence of current student status or date of qualification will be required.
Applications are received on a rolling basis - you can apply at any time. Grants will be awarded while funds are available. To enquire whether funds are still available contact Dr Fabio Silva ahead of submitting an application.
