About

One award of at least £6000 for an MPhil student in a field related to sustainability and conservation. The College is usually able to partner with the Cambridge Trust to increase this to a larger award of at least £12,000. The award was established in December 2020 by a gift from Emeritus Fellow Professor Steve Hoath in memory of his parents. The purpose of Professor Hoath’s gift is to:

  • stimulate the development of Wolfson College’s interdisciplinary Sustainability and Conservation Research Hub
  • support students with a broad interest in sustainability and conservation, particularly those who might not otherwise have the financial means to pursue postgraduate study in this field.
