About Zep Research's Grants and Scholarships
Zep Research is dedicated to helping young scholars achieve their research and academic goals, while encouraging them to apply the principles of interdisciplinary study to their work.
Zep Research offers full or partial scholarships covering conference registration fees to select postgraduate students and early career academics who might not otherwise have the financial resources to attend our academic conferences.
Who can receive Zep Research's grant or scholarship?
Awards are based on the appropriateness of the educational opportunity in relation to the applicant's field of study, financial need, and contributions to their community and to Zep Research's mission of interdisciplinarity. Scholarships will be awarded based on the availability of funds from Zep Research and will vary with each conference.
