Scholarships
Funds for extracurricular student activities
Do you have a good idea for a guest lecture or other student activity that promotes the field of geography? The South Swedish Geographical Society provides funds for projects that contribute to promoting the field of geography. This autumn you have the opportunity to apply for money to arrange activities that are normally not possible to carry out within the framework of a course. It can e.g. involve excursions or arrangements where you want to invite external guests. The activity must be open to more than the applicants.
The announcement is aimed at students at Lund University at
and who attend a master's program or the third year of a bachelor's program.
Maximum amount available for each application: 10 000 SEK.
The application period is currently closed, but stay tuned! We plan to reopen applications in the spring of 2025.
Hereby, the Torsten Hägerstrand Fund announces two scholarships, to an amount of 12000 Swedish crowns each. One scholarship is directed to human geography, and one to physical geography. They are primarily directed at younger doctors or doctoral students in the latter part of their studies. The scholarships are meant to cover costs for field work or travel to conferences. An account of the work is to be sent to the Society, to be published on its webpage.
Applications are not being accepted at the moment! We welcome new applications in the autumn of 2025.
