Conference and workshop grants

The Society for French Studies offers grants in support of conferences and pedagogic workshops held in the UK or Ireland and concerned with research, teaching and learning in any area of French studies. This includes one-day conferences and seminars, postgraduate conferences, and activities relating to the teaching of French studies in higher education. Such activities may involve pedagogic workshops, symposia on the teaching and learning of French studies, and networking events for practitioners.

Research Support

The Society recognises the importance of supporting colleagues across the career stages represented amongst its membership, and also acknowledges that there are certain groups — especially postgraduate students, early-career researchers without permanent positions and active scholars who have retired from permanent posts — for whom available resource is very scarce.
