Funding

One of the main activities of the ECPR is its portfolio of events: Joint Sessions of Workshops; General and Graduate Conference; and Methods Schools. In order to help individuals participate in both these, and other supported events, the ECPR offers a number of funds and scholarships to scholars in all stages of their careers.

Every year the ECPR awards approximately 150 grants to individuals who belong to member institutions; this funding alone is a key benefit of membership of the ECPR.

Claiming your grant

Prior to each event you will receive, via email, a claim form which must be returned to us by the deadline stated in the email and on the form, by post with all original documents (i.e. boarding passes/tickets and hotel bill). Failing to return this form, with all documentation, within the deadline, will result in rejection of your claim. *Please note none of the ECPR’s Grants can be claimed against food or drink.

Scholarships

Scholarships will be automatically deducted from your registration fees. Should you have already paid at the time of being awarded we will arrange a refund for you.

Should you require any assistance please contact Jenna Barnard.
