Description
How the Rhodes Scholarships can support your students (and be great for your institution): An open webinar hosted by the Rhodes Trust.
Thursday 5th May 12:30 – 13:15 BST
With guest speaker Babs Wise (former Director of the Office of University Scholars and Fellows and Faculty Advisor, Duke University) and Louise Dearnley (Director of Selection and Outreach at the Rhodes Trust), chaired by Doyin Atewologun (Dean at the Rhodes Trust).
The Rhodes Trust is delighted to invite Higher Education Faculty members and advisors to an open webinar, where we will share information about the Rhodes Scholarships, explain what we look for in applicants, and discuss the wealth of benefits students will gain from undertaking the application process for the Rhodes and other competitive scholarships; even if they don’t ultimately succeed in gaining a Rhodes Scholarship. We encourage applicants from every institution and background so we aim to give you the tools to support and encourage talented students from your institutions to apply for a Rhodes Scholarship and give an insight into the benefits of programmes for students seeking other scholarship opportunities.
The session will comprise a 30 minute discussion followed by a 15 minute Q&A session.
Registration is required. This event is primarily for all Higher Education faculty members with an interest in postgraduate scholarship opportunities. You'll be asked to confirm your institution when you register.
