[1] The HRC expects that costs of the research undertaken by scholarship/fellowship recipients over and above that provided by the award will be borne by the host institution. Applicants should confirm that such resources are in place to ensure the successful completion of their award. Whilst it is the responsibility of the host institution to bear the cost of the research, this does not preclude the submission of a proposal in the HRC funding round. Applicants should understand that such funding is contestable and not guaranteed. The HRC’s contribution to research costs is intended to facilitate the establishment of the scholar/fellows research programme.

[2] Note: the salary amount must be the same amount reflected in the budget or the lesser total maybe taken. Any salary variation after the approval process must be submitted in writing to the HRC and signed by both the applicant and the host institution.
