Opportunity description
The Keith Murray Graduate Scholarships were founded in 1983 by friends of Lord Murray, Rector of Lincoln College from 1944 - 1953 and subsequently Chairman of the University Grants Committee, to honor his achievements and to commemorate his eightieth birthday. They are open to graduates from outside the United Kingdom who are accepted for a graduate degree programme at the University of Oxford. This award is no longer restricted to DPhil candidates in the Humanities and Social Sciences; the Trustees welcome applications from candidates holding a place to study for any graduate degree in any subject.
