Scholarships and Opportunities

Owing to the generous establishment of the Harold and Gwenneth Harris Endowment for Medical Humanities, we are excited to offer two scholarships annually to support projects in the medical humanities. One scholarship is available to a medical student who wishes to undertake such a project. The other is unrestricted but preference will be given to an applicant from the health professions, or who is acting as a carer. In each case the successful applicant will be known as the Harris Fellow. The nature of the project undertaken is open and creative applications are encouraged. The scholarship provides funding for project related expenses up to $2500 and its award is dependent on the quality of the applications received annually.
The deadline for applications is May 31 and October 31 each year.

Please note that the deadline for this round has been extended (from October 31) to November 14, 2011.
