Every year the College appoints postgraduate students to Scholarships which have a substantial teaching element. The Scholarships are open to DPhil students from any Oxford College. In addition to payment for teaching, the postholder is entitled to the usual benefits of postgraduate scholarships. These scholarships are advertised on our Vacancies page.
Other Scholarships
The College currently offers 20 types of postgraduate scholarships, including some which are open to current students. 3-4 Scholarships are offered each year to postgraduates at Oriel who have shown academic merit. These scholarships are advertised at the page below.
Travel Grants
Undergraduate and Postgraduate students can apply to the College’s Travel Grants Fund for financial support to assist with travel related to their studies. Students often apply for funding to attend and present papers at academic conferences, to do research outside of Oxford, and to take part in training opportunities that will enhance their understanding of their fields. Please note that there is a cap of £1,400 for each student for the duration of their degree, with individual awards unlikely to be over £850.
The Travel Grants Committee meets termly to consider applications. If you have any questions, please contact the Graduate Officer, or drop by the Academic Office in Staircase 5.
