Scope of awards

The Trustees of the Barakat Trust are pleased to invite applications for grants in the fields of Islamic Art History, including Architecture, Archaeology and Conservation, and also related activities such as documentation, educational programmes, exhibitions and publications.

The Barakat Trust focuses on research scholarships and projects of defined scope and duration, and does not offer assistance towards the cost of fees and maintenance for university study.

Research grants at post-doctoral level are intended principally to help overseas scholars conduct research at the University of Oxford or elsewhere in the U.K. No scholarship or grant is offered for more than one year at a time, and no guarantee of renewal can be given.
