Purpose of
Scheme
Coeus Summer Scholar Application: This is a competitive grant scheme for psychology staff
(including research staff) at Sheffield and Thessaloniki. The scheme will work in a similar way to the
University of Sheffield SURE Scheme (http://www.sheffield.ac.uk/sure). The aim is to provide staff with
funds to employ undergraduate students for a 6-week period during the summer (June-September). During
this time the students will assist their supervisors on a research project that relates to one or both of the
themes being addressed by Research Track 3 (RT3). The grant will be used to fund each student’s living
and T&S costs up to a maximum of £1500. To be eligible students require 1 x lead supervisor based at
their home institution and at least 1 x co-supervisor at the sister institution. Beneficiaries of these awards
will be required to produce a report on their project, which will be posted on the International Faculty
psychology research website. There are two awards, each of £1500.
