Are you an undergraduate student writing a dissertation on a topic in the history of science, technology and medicine? Do you need to visit an archive as part of your research? If so, then why not apply for one of our OEC archive grants?

These awards, of up to £200, are specifically designed to cover travel, or similar costs, associated with archival visits. Please send a completed application form and address all enquiries to office@bshs.org.uk. Grant recipients will be invited to submit an article about the resulting archival work in the BSHS magazine, Viewpoint. Sponsorship for air travel will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and applicants may be asked to specify reasons why they have chosen the option to fly.

The next deadline for applications will come up early 2024.
