Cracow, Poland perioada: 2010/2011 Jagiellonian University Queen Jadwiga Fund
Academic Scholarships http://www.uj.edu.pl/oip/index.php?option=com The Queen Jadwiga Fund was established to commemorate the historic deed accomplished by Queen Jadwiga, who bequeathed her entire private estate for the renewal of the University of Cracow, thereby laying the foundation for six centuries of continuing scholarship and academic teaching in the Jagiellonian University of Cracow. The Fund's aim is to provide Scholarships for academics and doctoral students from Central and Eastern Europe, the countries of the former Soviet Union, and the Balkans, who wish to conduct scholarly research in the City of Cracow. It is the Founders' intention in this way to launch a new opportunity for the furthering of close links and scholarly exchange between the academics in this part of Europe; and that Cracow and its University again be, as in former times, a centre for learning prominent for its academic authority in the East and South. The Fund is managed by the Rector of the Jagiellonian University assisted by the Fund's Council, which consists of members elected from the community of senior academics from all the University's Faculties. The members of the Council also serve as its Admissions Board. The Fund's financial resources come from donations and gifts made by private persons and corporations. Our aim is to establish a basic capital resources bank which will enable the Fund to operate independently and flexibly irrespective of the sums and frequency of future contributions. Our full Scholarships amount to monthly cash payments of 1,500 PLN for academics, plus free accommodation in one of the University's halls of residence in a double - occupancy room and basic medical care for the duration of Scholarship in Cracow. The duration for Scholarships is from one to six months, depending on the nature of the academic project a candidate presents. So far the Queen Jadwiga Fund has invited to Cracow more than 770 academics and students from 21 countries. The scholarship holders will do their research in Kraków from October 2010 till June 2011.
