Uppsala University - Kumlins travel scholarship (Uppsala University)

Kumlins travel scholarship (Uppsala University)

You get a travel grant to fund a study or research trip abroad connected to your work in the language sciences. The scholarship covers one or more trips in the current or the next two semesters. It pays costs such as flights, accommodation and a daily allowance. There is no fixed published amount; the university's scholarship office sets it for each recipient. The grant comes from the H Kumlins stiftelse, a foundation set up in 1932 and managed by Uppsala University, which pays out these travel grants once a year.
