History Department PG Research Fund

In 2021/2022, Postgraduate students are welcome to apply for up to £250 to support their research-related activities. The allocation of funds follows the financial year which runs from 1st August to 31st July.

The application must be completed and approved by the PGR Director prior to the funds being spent; retrospective applications will not normally be considered. An application can only be considered if an itemised list of the expected costs is provided.

If your application is approved, you will need to provide evidence of the expenditure (all original receipts), and then complete an expenses claim form (normally form fp16aphd). Once the first paper expenses claim has been processed, the Expenses Team will set students up on Concur and advise them to use Concur to submit claims going forward.

In order to allow time for checking, approval and processing by the Expenses team, expenses claims submitted near the end of the financial year must be received by no later than the end of the 1st week of July.

Applicants should check details of allowable expenses on the Expenses Guidance web page.

In particular, applications should note that:

  • All expenses claims should be submitted within 3 months of the expense being incurred
  • The Finance Office have strict rules regarding Airbnb accommodation bookings.
  • The University will only consider paying membership fees under certain conditions (see section 16.6.5 of the Expenses Guidance)
  • The use of external catering will not normally be approved (see section 16.5.5 of the Expenses Guidance)

Please note that students in their fourth year and those in receipt of funding from research councils are not normally eligible to apply.

For any applications made out of term time, approval may take up to 2 weeks depending on staff availability.
