The Wallace studentships

Please note that the Wallace Studentship is not currently running.

The School of Historical Studies is offering two studentships for selected master's programmes.

These studentships are provided thanks to the generosity of Graham and Denise Wallace, who are kindly supporting MA students who would not be able to study without financial support.

Birkbeck is committed to supporting students from under-represented ethnically diverse groups, and we encourage those from these backgrounds to apply.
