IRCSET `Embark Initiative' Postgraduate Scholarship
Description of scheme
Second Call 2009
The Irish Research Council for Science, Engineering and Technology (IRCSET)
`EMBARK' Scheme offers opportunities for suitably qualified students to pursue a
postgraduate degree by research. The Scheme supports basic research in the broad
areas of Science, Engineering and Technology. The call for applications opens on
June 9th 2009 for students and researchers hoping to begin postgraduate research
in the Republic of Ireland in October 2009. While a majority of postgraduate
Scholarships awarded by the Council are offered to European Union (EU) citizens
or to those who are ordinarily resident within a member state of the EU, a
proportion of awards are also offered to exceptional candidates who are
ordinarily resident in non EU member states.
Scholarships are awarded only to those who will be full-time students and who
will engage fulltime in research during the period of the award. Students
awarded under the scheme must maintain their principle residence in Ireland
during the term of the Scholarship and Scholarships must be held at a recognised
third-level institution in Ireland.
The Scholarship awards are valued at €24,003 per year of award. Of this amount
€16,002 is paid as a maintenance award to the Scholar. The remaining €8,001 is
allocated to cover payment of fees to the Research Body, and support for the
research to be carried out.
GOVERNMENT OF IRELAND SCHOLARSHIPS IN SCIENCE, ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY
Description of Scheme
The duration of the award will normally be 36 months for PhD Funding. Funding
for a M.Sc. (by research) will normally be for 12 months. Recipients of the
award at M.Sc. level are encouraged to continue to a PhD providing that the
additional funding period is agreed with IRCSET in advance.
Applications for funding under the scheme are accepted by an online electronic
application system available at our website www.ircset.ie from June 9th 2009.
In addition to applications for Embark Initiative Funding applicants may also
apply, using the online application system, for funding under IRCSET's
Enterprise Partnership Scheme. The Enterprise Partnership Scheme offers
researchers the opportunity to gain additional valuable experience while
completing their research by working closely with a relevant industry partner as
well as providing insights into some of the commercial factors stimulating
research in Ireland. Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI), through the Irish
Research Council for Science, Engineering and Technology, provide a number of
additional scholarships in areas of sustainable energy. Students working in
areas ranging from the grid integration of wind to the applied chemistry of bio
fuels have been previously supported. IRCSET welcomes such applications to the
competition. Queries regarding the scheme which have not been addressed in the
