Otto Harpner Fund and The Angela Krosik Award for Doctoral Study

Entry deadline: 10 July 2024

Awards are made from the Otto Harpner Fund to contribute to the costs of a short visit to Austria (or for Austrian applicants, to the UK) for any of the following purposes:

  • to undertake an intensive language course (in German or English)
  • to undertake specific study (for example, in music, art or architecture)
  • to undertake research, or specific cultural or economic activities which help to foster relationships between Austria and the United Kingdom

While priority is normally given to applications in these areas, the above list is not seen as exhaustive. Applicants seeking support for projects which they believe reflect the purposes of the Fund are welcome to apply.

Assistance may also be provided for elderly or disabled people wishing to travel to Austria where their visit is intended to enhance Anglo-Austrian understanding.
